Teaching for Social Justice Through Interactive Read-Alouds of Picturebooks: A Teacher-Researcher’s Journey and Evolution

Norline Wild

Grounded in design-based research (DBR), this presentation explores an early childhood teacher-researcher’s personal and professional journey as she adopts a pedagogy of teaching for social justice and critical consciousness in her early childhood classroom and consequently creates an interactive read-aloud approach, Picturebooks for Social Justice. Findings explore the teacher-researcher’s journey and evolution and also indicate the roles the teacher takes on during the read-alouds: Reader; Mover; Explorer, Clarifier, & Encourager; Manager; and Questioner & Analyzer.
