Narrative not only builds literacy but also fosters students' critical thinking around the ways they inhabit their world. The author examines habits, myths, and mindsets that threaten our planet's ecosystems, and presents \"counter-stories\" you can use to build your middle and secondary students' capacity for environmental advocacy. Chapters are organized around a framework for developing environmental literacy, each focusing on how storytelling can build the capacity for various roles within the realm of climate stewardship. Via practical entry points and pathways for lesson and unit design, educators can use narrative to help students envision themselves as systems thinkers, communicators, activists, problem solvers, and more. Each chapter uses different kinds of narratives, from fictional parables to comic storyboards, to present practices students can understand and try out. They also include case studies, writing exercises, lesson suggestions, planning tool organizers, and rubrics applicable throughout different curriculum areas. Ideal for any secondary educator grappling with the uncertainties around climate change in their classroom, this resource introduces and encourages inquiry investigation through the power of storytelling to cultivate climate stewardship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eXochitl Bentley\u003c\/b\u003e is a national board-certified English teacher at Cleveland Charter High School in California, USA.
