Annotation: There are few, if any, educators today who are not deeply concerned with literacy levels in their schools. Elaine McEwan has thoroughly updated and revised this best-selling book to ensure that educators understand the most effective ways to teach all students to read. This resource is written for preservice and practicing teachers of all kinds and levels, and for administrators, principals, and superintendents. McEwan covers strategies for helping students learn to read, develop fluency, and acquire cognitive strategies, and for ensuring that students continue to read a lot to deepen their word and world knowledge. Illustrated with vignettes, examples, and sample instructional activities, this second edition of Teach Them ALL to Read shows precisely how educators in successful schools are teaching students to read.
