I'm just starting to read this book 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1646320077?pf_rd_r=GXSGDTS37320RNWMCZYK&pf_rd_p=edaba0ee-c2fe-4124-9f5d-b31d6b1bfbee

He also has a TPT store with materials https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Thinklaw  If you go through his main website https://www.thinklaw.us/sample-lesson-company-updates/  he has a downloadable sample that contains the toc for each level. It *looks* like most of the lessons are sold individually in his TPT store. There are some free sample lessons, so it's possible to try them out and see if they're a good fit. 

He makes the comment in his book that we focus on "closing the achievement gap" in race, etc. but then asks "what if educators focused on shattering achievement ceilings instead?" Good stuff!

Anyone else used this or read the book? The kindle version wasn't too expensive, and I'm hoping to get through it soon.

This is interesting, thanks.

I took a (very quick and lazy) look at the free samples for early elementary, and it's pretty much common sense: read to kids, discuss, encourage them to explain the reasons behind their answers. Solid, but probably what most of us are doing as it is. But I haven't looked at the later ages yet.
