Abstract "The Media Savvy Middle School Classroom is a practical guide for teachers of grades 5-8 who need to educate their students with media literacy skills. Today's fake news, alternative facts, and digital manipulations are compromising the critical thinking and well-being of middle-grade learners already going through significant personal changes. This actionable book prepares teachers to help their students become informed consumers of online resources. Spanning correct source use, personal versus expert opinions, deliberate misinformation, social media, and more, these ready-to-use activities can be integrated directly into existing language arts and mathematics lesson plans"-- Provided by publisher.
