With its careful balance between the theory and the practice, this book always gives readers the theories behind the methods, encouraging them to choose, adapt, and construct their own approaches as they create a balanced program of literacy instruction. Special emphasis has been given to adapting instruction for English language learners, struggling readers and writers and special needs students throughout the book. Unlike comparable texts, the new edition stresses effective steps for closing the gap between achieving and struggling readers as mandated by the No Child Left Behind legislation and Reading First. Reading Methods, Comprehension, Assessment, Emergent Literacy, Reading for student with special needs. Elementary Reading Methods.
Distinguished author Tom Gunning delivers a new edition of his best-selling Creating Literacy Instruction for All Students that will continue to influence the way reading and writing are taught to future teachers. With its inclusive view of literacy, the seventh edition continues to emphasize methods that have been validated by research and practice while also delivering the basics of all major aspects of reading and writing. Reflecting the author’s ongoing, extensive, hands-on work with schools coping with the demands of No Child Left Behind and the implementation of Response to Intervention, the seventh edition stresses effective steps for helping every student become as fully literate as possible.

What Do Reviewers Say about the Seventh Edition?
“I appreciate that RTI is going to be addressed [in the Seventh Edition] in greater detail…. There will also be more stress on the English language learner and that, too is needed. Updates are so necessary on these topics.” –Deborah A. Farrer, California University of Pennsylvania
“Gunning’s literacy philosophy is one with which I am most comfortable, both as a literacy teacher and as an instructor of teacher candidates. This text provides a sound foundation for students to build their knowledge of methods and strategies for teaching in all areas of literacy. It is a flexible format, it is comprehensive, and it is easy to integrate into my course content.” –Beth A. Childress, Armstrong Atlantic State University
