This was a great resource book- and I am not one to read teaching books!

A Great Resource For Teaching
~ Written on Sep 18, 2008. out of users found this review helpful.

Couple this with two great literature books for all beginning teachers.
Life's Little Lessons: An Inch-By-Inch Tale of Success
and The Big Squeal: A Wild, True, and Twisted Tail...each come with a wonderful 10-page guide with strategies and activities for teaching reading built around these lovely stories. Every fall I recommend them to parents to share and use with their kids at home.
Written by two teachers, they are great tool for the classroom as well.

Confirming What We Know & Making It Better

We just finished a Book Study @ school using this book! We all thought her suggestions were great (especially the one about not ONLY using running records & DRA levels to "label" readers) but using individual conferencing also.
Mini Lesson Ideas abound! Specifics are included throughout! A must-have in your personal/professional library for ANY Elementary School Reading Teacher!

Great for primary teachers!

This book has many great ideas! It is very simple and to the point. YOu can turn around and use these lessons tomorrow.

Wow...

I wish every teacher in America could teach reading this way- we would have classrooms full of kids who LOVE to read instead of kids who get DRILLED to death with phonics and word attack skills.... phonics is important but learning to choose appropriate books and LOVING them will create LIFE LONG readers... this author knows that and shares her thoughts in a fabulous way :)
