Abstract | Teachers have always known that reading is one of the best ways for students to develop their background knowledge. But a truly effective reading program is more than just giving students more opportunities to read. Instead, teachers need the five-step, research-based process demonstrated on this DVD. Use this professional development resource in your next workshop or teacher meeting to introduce teachers to wide reading and show how this process works in any kind of classroom, or schoolwide. Education expert Robert J. Marzano explains the rationale for wide reading, and teachers demonstrate a five-step method that ensures your program has the most impact. Classroom scenes throughout the program show how teachers build excitement around reading by using a variety of strategies, including literary circles, quick reads, interest forms, and stickies. |
