Catlin Goodrow: Reading Beyond the Basics, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Teacher and literacy coach Catlin Goodrow offers research-informed strategies and personal reflections to help older elementary school students engage with complex, vocabulary-rich texts. Grounded in effective tools and routines, her approach focuses on the teacher-supported reading of worthy texts. Teachers will find practical resources, templates, and examples of lessons to foster student engagement, accelerate reading skills, and support ongoing literacy development.

Grades 2-6 classroom teachers, reading specialists, and literacy coaches will:

• Shape literacy instruction around flexible principles versus prescribed programs of practice
• Analyze and select texts that both foster literacy skills and encourage personal reflection
• Develop literacy lesson structures that support students before, during, and after reading
• Implement simple, reproducible exercises as grounding routines for reading engagement
• Create safe learning environments where students can engage and explore their reading
