Publisher's Synopsis

A core or supplement for undergraduate/graduate-level courses in Elementary Reading Methods, Introductory Reading, or Diagnostic Reading.

This classroom-proven text prepares both pre-service and in-service teachers for the teaching and assessment of all word recognition skills. Balanced in approach, it incorporates the best from traditional approaches and whole language, and - unlike many texts that focus only on phonics - it encompasses all of the important word recognition areas: phonics, sight words, roots, affixes, word families, the use of context, and use of the dictionary. It facilitates the learning of word recognition skills and provides model lessons and activities to help teachers teach these skills to students and classrooms in elementary and middle schools. In addition, the book stresses the need to adapt and modify word recognition strategies as children progress through the grades.
