Teaching Reading in the 21st Century

This book is extremely comprehensive and contains plenty of examples to guide your reading isntruction. There are three "Day in the Lives" excerpts which demonstrate good reading practices and plenty of research based principles which support reading instruction. I found the book easy to read and easy to reference when adopting or modifying existing reading instruction. There are numerous examples of teaching reading to diverse students which will assist with our current and future student populations.

I was introduced to this book as one of the requirements in a reading endorsement course that I am presently taking. As a veteran teacher of twenty-nine years, I am on the downside of the profession, preparing for retirement in about five years. However, I am always welcome to new methodology or better adaptations of tested strategies.This book is a concise and informative collection of skills to assist the emerging teaching as well as the one with years under his/her belt. Current psychological trends in the teaching of reading provide essential information for parents and teachers alike. Featuring chapters that reinforce each other as well as real-life vignettes from people in the field, the book is a worthy addition to any teacher's library. Outstanding tables, charts, diagrams, photos, and illustrations enhance the meaningful text. Also, the supplemental "Assessment and Lesson Plans" booklet is a great bonus.I find it to be one of the best teaching tools that I have had and highly recommend it to others.
