Summary Annotation In Parallel Practices, a social justice-focused elementary teacher narrates ber own experience with the rationale for selected lessos from critical literacy, equityoriented multiculturalism, and pedagogical practice course. She examines the "parallel pratice" implications of ehr own curriculum with graduate student for the work her students will do with children. Regenspan situates her practices in a unique interpretation of John Dewey's thinking--one that suggests a standpoint for both for terpretation of John Dewey's thinking--one that suggests a standwpoint for both her own curriculum-making and that of her students in opposition to the divison fo labor into thinking work and doing work. Using Dewey's later thinking, which calls for the integration of "mind-body in wholeness of operation, " Regenspan insits that the work of social justice-focused education is equally political and spiritual.
