Synopsis

Innovative in approach, this book explores both the theory and practice of contemporary strategies in literacy teaching and assessment — with a focus on the use of literacy portfolios within the context of integrated/language arts/literature-based teaching environments. It explains step-by-step the process of using a unique Literacy Assessment Portfolio to enhance responsibilities and ownership of literacy as well as provide teachers with necessary information to make instruction most effective. Using an abundance of real-life examples, it explains how the LAP assesses and guides both reading and writing and applies the portfolio concepts to students/readers of different ages (literacy developmental levels) in mainstream as well as special needs settings.
