Spotlight on Global Issues

15-Interactive eBook set Grades 6–10

Essential Question:
How does responsibility for the future depend on education, attitude, understanding, and action?
Generation Z citizens need to be engaged participants in change and a voice for the common good. Spotlight on Global Issues takes the approach that no one is too young to make a difference and is inspired by the groups/individuals taking action worldwide, including the teens profiled in these books. Teaching and learning outcomes are supported by calls to action; multiple perspectives; interdisciplinary standards alignment; learning activities; making evidence-based claims; fillable graphic organizers; and lesson plans/assessments to help solve critical problems.
