Celebrate Leadership: Lessons for Middle School Students

By Maggie Meyer and Jenna Glock

Enriching, engaging, rigorous, meaningful-these are the learning opportunities that are interwoven in Celebrate Leadership: Lessons for Middle School Students. Meyer and Glock use the ideas of Howard Gardner as a guide in designing curriculum and assessments that will engage learners. Constructing learning experiences that are based on the multiple intelligences and the standards provides all students with the opportunity to be successful. When it comes to assessment of that learning, educators can use the same concept in designing authentic situations, which the authors call celebrations of learning. Celebrate Leadership has step-by-step procedures, planning sheets for teachers, and all the materials that students need. The teaching and learning culminate in a "Night of the Notables" celebration, with an audience that includes peers, parents, and community members. Meyer and Glock present a program that is easy for the instructor to implement and worthwhile, rewarding, and fun for students.
