Reflective practice made simple, Beyond the Horizon is a beautifully illustrated folktale that uncovers the history of social studies education, engaging social studies teachers in a meaningful reflection of their craft. Beyond the Horizon combines the power of storytelling with deeply reflective questions that help teachers rethink the intellectual quality and purpose behind their social studies curriculum. In an era of high-stakes standardized testing where math and reading consume most staff development time, this well-written story brings social studies curriculum into the forefront of teachers' thinking. It is the optimum tool to jumpstart a staff's transformation in social studies.
