Teaching children to read

In a comprehensive, evidence-based, accessible book, renowned authors D. Ray Reutzel and Robert B. Cooter, Jr. show clearly that it is the teacher who makes the difference in the development of literacy in children grades K-8. Reutzel and Cooter's unique approach organizes each chapter around seven pillars of evidence-based, effective reading instruction: teacher knowledge, assessment, effective instruction strategies, response to intervention, family and community connections, and, new to this edition, student motivation and new literacies/technology. - Back cover.
