Despite the fact that unicorns are not real, you undoubtedly know what a unicorn is. Despite the fact that narwhals ARE real, you may not know what a narwhal is. In schools, we think that engagement at the highest level like it''s a unicorn-something we''ve heard of, but know isn''t real. We should be thinking of engagement in schools as a narwhal-something that we may not know much about, but is absolutely real and can be found right in your own school!In this book, Heather Lyon creates a common understanding of what engagement looks and sounds like so that anyone can design and gauge instruction using this understanding. More importantly, with this knowledge educators can make changes to instruction to truly increase student engagement.

In REAL LOVE: Strategies for Reaching Students Who See No Way Out, Alexes uses her personal stories and professional experiences to empower and equip educators with strategies that can be implemented, immediately, to support students with diverse needs. Rooted in the theories of Culturally Responsive and Reality pedagogy, Alexes challenges educators to reconsider outdated and inequitable educational practices and pushes them to create learning environments, experiences, and opportunities that will meet the social, emotional, cultural, and academic needs of all students. To Alexes, REAL LOVE is not a mere acronym. Instead, it is her call to action for all educators to take a new approach to the way teaching and learning happens in our schools and classrooms. She believes that a radical transformation to our pedagogical practices will result in the elimination of educational achievement and opportunity gaps and an increase in the college and career readiness and completion rate of some of our most vulnerable student populations.
