About this title

Synopsis

Although this book promotes a balanced approach for the introductory courses for reading, it has long been recognized as a leader in phonics instruction. This tenth edition strengthens the book's reputation and serves as an authoritative and practical guide to teaching reading. Throughout the text readers will experience a wealth of classroom applications in the form of activities and games, detailed lesson plans, and examples of decoding and comprehension strategies. A three-part organization covers the foundations of literacy instruction, teaching students to become strategic readers, and implementing a literacy program. For elementary school reading teachers.

From the Publisher

A new edition of this classic reading methods text...the one whose skillful blending of the latest literature-based techniques with time-tested classroom approaches and a solid "skills" foundation make it unique in the field! The new Eighth Edition offers a wealth of new, up-to-the-minute coverage! There is expanded discussion of emergent literacy, the reading-writing connection, and alternative assessment strategies...revised chapters on teacher effectiveness, teaching in a multicultural society, and literature- based reading...plus excellent new coverage of reading as an interactive process. As before, Principles and Practices of Teaching Reading, Eighth Edition views reading as an active, dynamic process and presents future reading teachers with exciting methods for encouraging children to participate in, and enjoy, that process. In addition, exemplary instructional activities throughout the text provide students with practical examples, lesson plans, and classroom activities they'll find invaluable in their own first classrooms.
