Publisher description

Exemplary teacher research has established that explicit teaching plays a
vital role in the classroom, with particular benefits for struggling readers.
This book is a practical resource for explaining reading to students who do not
learn to read easily. Identified are 22 major skills and strategies associated
with vocabulary development, comprehension, word recognition and fluency. Ways
to explain each skill and strategy are illustrated with abundant concrete
examples, which teachers can use as starting points for developing lessons
tailored to the needs, strengths and interests of their own students. The book
also shows how to move from the teacher's explanations to the student's
independent use of new concepts, and how to embed explicit teaching within a
context of rich, engaging literacy experiences. Exemplary teacher research has established that explicit teaching plays a
vital role in the classroom, with particular benefits for struggling readers.
This book provides a practical resource for explaining reading to students who
do not learn to read easily.
