About this title

Synopsis

This market-leading text has been heavily revised while maintaining its focus on struggling readers and emphasizing classroom-based, teacher-driven approaches to assessment and remediation. Understanding Reading Problems, 6/e, integrates authentic vignettes and case studies and clear, vivid writing with the latest research. Expanded coverage of portfolio assessment, lexiles and guided reading levels, running records and other informal observation procedures, developmental spelling stages, emergent literacy assessments, assessing and teaching students with limited English proficiency, and practical strategies for adapting instruction for special-needs students in inclusion classrooms make the 6th edition the foremost text in its field.

From the Back Cover

Ringing Endorsements for Scaffolding Emergent Literacy…

“Readers simply love this book because of the perfect balance of theory and practice.”
Professor Nancy Hansen-Krening, University of Washington

�-------------------------------------------------------------------------� “I found the book compelling, sound, and researched with a strong application element: theory to practice.”
Professor Verlinda Angell, Southern Utah University

�-------------------------------------------------------------------------� “My students like the massive amount of information contained in a relatively short text. The organization has a nice flow and fits well with the syllabus.”
Professor Vi Austin, Stephen F. Austin State University

�-------------------------------------------------------------------------� Scaffolding Emergent Literacy will help children become more strategic in their building of literacy skills and concepts!

Underscored by rich child development theory, developmentally appropriate practices, and sound research, the Second Edition of this popular book is packed with literacy activities that support emergent to fluent literacy. Each strategy is paired with a classroom demonstration and samples of children's work. With this book, assessment isn't an afterthought! Scaffolding Emergent Literacy provides in-depth coverage of highly effective assessment and evaluation strategies and offers numerous classroom-based, child-centered measurement tools, along with useful descriptions of the most common standardized tests being used for diagnostic purposes.

Store Description

Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
