Dr. Robert Johnson, Ph.D. in History

"You do a wonderful job of breaking down analytical thinking and critical writing into manageable and systematic teaching units. This is a great model for teaching content-based literacy. Your method for taking students through the various stages of writing (pre-writing, paragraph practice, document analysis, outlining, and assessment) goes a long way towards moving students to the type of critical literacy that is not only rewarded at the university-level but needed if we are to build an informed and engaged citizenry."

Materials have passed the Social and Legal Compliance Review for the California State Department of Education. Refer your district funding expert to access state funds to obtain books at: www.cde.ca.gov/ci/cr/cf/funding.asp
