EDITORIAL REVIEW

Now in its fourth edition, The Reading Teacher's Book of Lists has enjoyed huge word-of-mouth success. Teachers hear of it from other teachers or at workshops and wonder how they managed without it! This newly revised and updated version places at your fingertips over 190 of the most used and useful lists to help you develop instructional materials and plan lessons for elementary as well as secondary students.

For quick access, the lists are organized into 15 sections, from "Phonics," "Subject Words," and "Vocabulary" to "Literature," "Comprehension," and "Abbreviations, Symbols, and Signs." Each section brims with examples, key words, teaching ideas, and activities that you can use as is or easily adapt to meet your students particular needs. You'll find over 40 new lists including: "Vowel Sounds," "Reading Math," "Multiple Intelligences and Reading," and "Comprehension Strategies." Other lists have been expanded and updated including favorites such as "Story Starters," "Prefixes and Suffixes," and "Common Word Idioms."

I have implemented the fourth edition into my teaching since I taught seventh and eighth grade struggling readers and writers classes. This book is excellent for all grades. It is a must have in every teacher's resource library.

I wasn't sure a book of lists would help me. I tutor freshmen in High School. But I have used these lists over and over again. Words with multiple meanings, idoms, homonyms, and of course vocabulary lists are some of my favorites. Buy it you'll like it.

This is an amazing book. Lists for everything a teacher could think of. I am using the phonics lists in a graduate level class and it is more complete than any materials provided with the class! Highly recommended! The spiral bound version is outstanding as the pages lay flat when you are using it.

This text is invaluable. As a Title 1 teacher, I use it frequently to target those specific deficit skills. No longer must I depend upon memory or a workbook to provide key words for targeted practice. As a classroom teacher, this text provides fabulous lists of words based upon skill-specific information. It aides the targeting of deficit areas, and is intuitive in its use. This text is a must have. I would spend much more time "inventing"(read here- trying to remember words that have the ____ sound) instead of simply listing words for target areas for intensive intervention. It is also a terrific gift for beginning teachers! Worth every penny.
