Developing Contemporary Literacies through Sports
offers the many handouts, rubrics, additional sources, and examples of student work referenced in the book. These supplemental materials were provided by experienced teachers and teacher educators who contributed chapters to one of seven interrelated sections: facilitating literature study, providing alternatives to traditional novels, teaching writing, engaging students in inquiry and research, fostering media and digital literacies, promoting social justice, and developing out-of-school literacies. The supplemental materials may be used as currently constructed or adapted for other classroom purposes. Labeled “appendixes” when referenced in the book, the materials are signaled throughout the book by references to specific appendixes and the corresponding “website” or “mouse” icon that appears in the margins.
