The more we understand about middle childhood, the more we as educators are able to meet children′s needs and the demands placed on educators by accountability legislation. The author makes a substantial contribution to this increased understanding.</em>--Lorin W. Anderson, Distinguished Professor Emeritus (6/2/2008 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><em>This book introduces the complex, multifaceted world of the upper elementary school student. With so much focus on standards-based learning, teachers must consider the whole child. The author presents research showing that children come from distinct and different backgrounds that affect the way they approach learning. Educators can use this information to help these children navigate the complexities of their lives and the expectations placed on them.</em>--Renee Ponce-Nealon, Third-Grade Teacher (7/2/2008 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><em>This book reminds me that I became a fifth grade teacher because that time in a child's life is amazing and critical. This book should be required reading for every teacher, especially ones going into the upper elementary grade levels.</em>--Tracy Pinnell, Fifth-Grade Teacher (6/17/2008 12:00:00 AM)<br>
