strategy-based instruction that make learning more active,
experiential, collaborative, and cognitive for all children.
Rea and Mercuri give you everything you need to use these
strategies, including lesson plans and suggestions on

first chapter captures the very essence of teaching reading, the rest of the
text is an absolute gold mine of additional research based instructional
strategies appropriate for the college student, the first year teacher, and the
veteran reading teacher."
- Pam Matlock, Murray State University
"This exciting new text presents strategies for teaching
children who are at-risk, including children with learning and behavioral
disabilities, children of poverty, and children who speak English as a second
language. More than just a list, the text integrates
scientifically-validated practices into a systematic teaching process that uses
data from students in authentic classrooms to guide practice."
