Lead with these four resources that will take your teachers’ instructional practices to the next level.
Teaching Reading Sourcebook, Updated 3rd Edition
This best-selling guide helps educators join evidence-based research with practical classroom instruction that improves students’ comprehension and fluency across all facets of an effective reading program—phonemic awareness, decoding, vocabulary development, fluency, and comprehension. The Teaching Reading Sourcebook, 3rd Edition is organized according to the elements of explicit instruction (what? why? when? and how?), and includes both a research-informed knowledge base and practical sample lesson models. This new edition includes an entire chapter on reading intervention within a MTSS framework.
Assessing Reading: Multiple Measures, Revised 2nd Edition
Assessing Reading: Multiple Measures, Revised 2nd Edition provides a collection of tests for the comprehensive assessment of skills related to reading. These assessments can help identify why a student is having reading difficulty, determine what the next step in instruction should be to remediate that difficulty, and monitor progress throughout the course of instruction.
Vocabulary Handbook
For all educators who are working to improve reading achievement, the Vocabulary Handbook provides clear instructional approaches for successfully building students’ vocabulary knowledge—knowledge essential for strong reading comprehension. With teacher-friendly sample lesson models, this book can be used to boost vocabulary instruction in any reading program. It focuses on the three critical components of exemplary vocabulary instruction: teaching specific words, teaching independent word-learning strategies, and promoting word consciousness.
