Basic Skills for Effective Reading - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

For courses in Developmental Reading typically at the 4th-8th grade level. This low-level reading text is designed to bring students with limited reading skills closer to college-level reading. Using contemporary learning theory ― i.e., skill preview, division of skills into small units, guided practice, immediate feedback, and skill practice ― it offers a step-by-step approach to reading skill development and applications. It helps students develop 1) word attack skills (e.g., phonics and syllabication); 2) skills related to the use of context clues, word parts, a dictionary, and a personal vocabulary system; and 3) skills which helps students identify main ideas and details in paragraphs and longer selections. Practice reading selections and exercises provide opportunities not only for reading, but for critical thinking and writing as well.
