“I highly recommend this book for both language and content teachers as together they grapple with how best to implement the Common Core Standards.”
―Margo Gottlieb, Illinois Resource Center
“Grounded in their ongoing work in schools, the authors bring the standards to life in this book, exploring the CCSS and providing great examples of what can happen when content instruction is infused with pertinent literacy practices.” ―From the Foreword by Donna Ogle, professor emeritus, National-Louis University
“Count on Fisher, Frey, and Alfaro to lead the way into the Common Core with this in-depth examination. The Path to Get There provides an effective blueprint for the teaching of science, history, and technical subjects in the era of Common Core.”
―Gabriela Mafi, Assistant Superintendent, Secondary Education, Garden Grove (CA) Unified School District
“This book is much more than another content-area reading text; it is a book about learning content. This book is much more than a text about the Common Core Standards; it is a book about how to implement these standards in the classroom. This is an essential resource for middle- and secondary-level teachers, curriculum leaders, and administrators!”
―Karen D. Wood, University of North Carolina at Charlotte
“The authors flesh out a vision of embedded literacy instruction that is manageable and integral to the teaching of a content discipline. Disciplinary teachers who do not have an extensive background in literacy and language arts will find this book to be an especially valuable resource in their work to realize the Common Core Standards with their students.”
―Doug Buehl, Edgewood College
“ The Path to Get There is an important and extremely useful resource. With the sharp focus on rigorous literacy instruction so necessary today, content area teachers are often left out of the discussion. This book puts them front and center and seeks to support them in this crucial work.”
―Esther Klein Friedman, Senior Director, Literacy and Academic Intervention, Office of Academic Policy, New York City Department of Education
“ The Path to Get There provides a road map for enhancing literacy instruction within and across disciplines. This will be a valuable resource for new and veteran teachers, curriculum coordinators, department leaders, and administrators.
―Taffy E. Raphael, University Scholar, Coordinator, Teacher Network, Project READi, University of Illinois at Chicago
