Teach Reading In Title I School - Softcover

Reseña del editor

In The Title I Teacher's Guide to Teaching Reading, K-3, Nancy Akhavan ,a Title I principal, takes a pragmatic, goal-oriented approach to meeting reading benchmarks. She illustrates instruction that looks beyond the government's free-lunch label to see exciting possibilities for every child, showing how: reading workshop and units of study can augment or supplement - yet not supplant - a textbook and improve children's reading; meaningful instructional routines foster good reading habits in students who don't come from homes with strong models of literacy; strategy-based instruction gives students the tools to move toward independence; careful scaffolding can help English learners raise their achievement; and well-planned, well-sequenced instruction makes it easier for teachers to document their activities for administrators.
Throughout, Akhavan's encouraging, practical advice focuses on what's really important in helping stuggling students, on finding do able solutions to instructional problems, and on connecting your professional learning to your students' learnlng.
