This book teaches middle and high school educators how to help reduce political division in their classrooms and schools. Written as a practical guide, it shows teachers why and how they should help students learn to talk across political differences. The book includes real examples and strategies that teachers can use right away.
It has been recommended by education groups like AllSides and the Institute for Social & Emotional Learning. The book comes with a discussion guide that asks teachers to think about times when political disagreements made them feel stuck, and how they can better prepare students to handle these challenges. There's also a 12-minute webinar that summarizes the main ideas.
This resource is especially helpful for educators who want to create classrooms where students can have respectful conversations about difficult topics, even when they disagree with each other.
