9780545007252: Breakthrough in Beginning Reading and Writing: The Evidence-Based Approach to Pinpointing Students' Needs and Delivering Targeted Instruction

Synopsis

Drawing on major new insights in brain research, Gentry shows how reading and writing develop in five phases—from operations with no letter knowledge to understanding of phonics chunks—that provide the blueprint for instructional approaches. The book enables teachers to identify a child's phase of development, set reasonable expectations for growth, and select the methods that will move each child forward. For use with Grades PreK-2.

About the Author

Richard Gentry earned his elementary education degree from the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, and a Ph.D. in reading education from the University of Virginia. For sixteen years he taught reading education at Western Carolina University, where he directed the Reading Center. Well known for his research and writing in literacy education, Gentry is currently an independent researcher, author, and consultant. His published books include Breaking the Code: The New Science of Beginning Reading and Writing and The Science of Spelling.

From the Back Cover

Richard Gentry takes the guesswork out of beginning reading and writing instruction with an easily applied approach to step-by-step assessment and matched instruction. No more hours spent testing isolated skills!

The book is divided into two parts, and is accompanied by a DVD. In Part One, supported by rich examples from real children, Richard Gentry delineates a sequence of five code-breaking phases that all beginning readers and writers go through:

* Phase 0: Operations Without Letter Knowledge

* Phase 1: Operations With Letters but Without Sounds

* Phase 2: Operations With Partial Phonemic Awareness

* Phase 3: Operations With Full Phonemic Awareness

* Phase 4: Operations With Full Code and Chunking Knowledge

The DVD shows you how to apply what you've learned in Part One to meet the needs of your own readers and writers. On the DVD, Gentry shows you how to determine which phase a child is in, how to pinpoint his or her needs, and how to design custom-fit instruction that builds on the skills the student has demonstrated.

In Part Two of the book, Gentry illuminates our understanding of the reciprocal nature of reading and writing development, suggests promising new directions for Reading Recovery, and provides fresh insights into the decades-old debate between phonics-first and meaning-based approaches to beginning reading instruction.
