Often students who struggle with reading and writing are told what they can't do, not what they can. This book, while focusing on the positive, provides thorough coverage of procedures for assessing and instructing struggling readers of all ages-from primary grades to adulthood. In keeping with current theory, this book emphasizes prevention and early intervention. It is based on the premise that student performance is variable and that assessment and instruction are planned and modified to meet the needs and levels of students. Jargon-free, it is written in a clear style and is packed with examples from real classrooms and clinics. Teachers and literacy instructors/clinicians.
