This popular text, now in its Fourth Edition, introduces
pre-service and in-service teachers to the most current theories
and methods for teaching literacy to children in elementary
schools. The methods presented are based on scientific findings
that have been tested in many classrooms. A wealth of examples,
hands-on activities, and classroom vignettes--including lesson
plans, assessments, lists of children's literature books to fiction
and nonfiction texts, and more--illustrate the methods and bring
them to life.The text highlights the importance of teaching EVERY
child to become competent in all of the nuances and complexities of
reading, writing, and speaking. The value of reflection and peer
discussion in learning to expand their students' literacies is
emphasized. Readers are encouraged to reflect on their own
experiences with reading and teaching throughout their
lifetimes--experiences that will serve well in learning to teach
reading. "Your Turn" boxes invite readers to think about their
views of the material presented, and to talk with colleagues and
teachers about their "best ways" of learning this new information.
"Did You Notice?" boxes engage readers in observation and analysis
of methods and classroom situations discussed in the text.
Teachers' stories serve as models of successful teaching and to
draw readers into professional dialogue about the ideas and
questions raised. End-of-chapter questions and activities provide
additional opportunities for reflection and discussion. All of
these pedagogical features help readers expand and refine their
knowledge in the most positive ways. Topics covered in Teaching
