A to Z Literacy Strategies: Best Practices for Teaching Reading and Writing Across Middle Grade Content Areas

David Puckett has compiled a collection of the best tools and strategies for literacy instruction in all middle school classrooms. These engaging, effective strategies will create readers who think about text, think with text, and think through text. Teachers will teach the strategies to deliver literacy instruction alongside their content. A to Z Literacy Strategies is an important resource for anyone who wants to create a student-centered classroom where effective literacy development can occur.
