About this title

Synopsis

This market-leading text helps teachers create engaged readers at all age levels, from primary grades through adolescence, through its comprehensive exploration of strategies for reading assessment and instruction. Heavily revised, the new edition maintains its focus on struggling readers and emphasizes classroom-based, rather than clinical, approaches. Understanding Reading Problems, 5/e, integrates case studies and a reader friendly style with the latest research.
