Teaching Reading Beyond the Primary Grades: A Blueprint for Helping Intermediate Students Develop the Skills They Need to Comprehend the Texts They Re (Theory and Practice) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

With this book, Marjorie Lipson bridges the gap between reading in the primary grades, where students receive daily explicit instruction and guided reading, and reading in middle school, where they must read many genres independently, with understanding. Grounded in Lipson's research in intermediate classrooms, the book provides a blueprint for planning and delivering instruction in word recognition, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. It also addresses the scheduling, management, and assessment practices needed to ensure student engagement and proficiency. For use with Grades 3-6.
