This book proposes how to involve low readers more effectively in textbook learning. It presents instructional techniques to improve students' willingness to work in mainstream textbooks--particularly those students with low reading skills. These techniques optimize learning of new content by focusing on three phases: Teachers *prepare* the student for new learning (Before Reading), *help* them (During Reading), and then help them *integrate* the new learning into what they already know (After Reading). The net effect of providing these active "handles" for learning from text is to maintain the confidence and motivation of the low-reading student.
Includes a textbook evaluation form to help teachers assess how or whether to use a particular text with their students. An eminently practical book for the classroom teacher!
