Solving problems in the teaching of literacy.
Abstract An important goal in every first-grade classroom is to get children reading -- but how? This book examines current research on first-grade literacy instruction, and shows how it translates into what good teachers really do in the classroom. The authors, premier early literacy scholars and educators, take readers directly into the classrooms of five highly successful teachers, exploring the reading, writing, and classroom management techniques these practitioners use to boost student engagement and achievement. The book provides a vivid picture of the complexities of successful teaching.
