Teach them all to read

To successfully teach reading, teachers must first believe that all children can learn to read, and then they have to turn that belief into a reality. In this thoroughly updated and revised version of her best-selling book, the author guides educators through the challenging but crucial work of teaching every child how to read. Written for teachers, this resource covers strategies for nine essential components of effective reading instruction: phonemic awareness, phonics, spelling, fluency, word and world knowledge, comprehension, providing opportunities to read, writing, and developing a reading culture. -- Publisher description
