description: Literacy Assessment and Intervention for the Elementary Classroom will prepare future teachers to recognize and assess reading and writing problems and provide effective interventions to help every student succeed. The book focuses on the major areas of phonemic awareness, phonics, word identification, comprehension of narrative and expository text, vocabulary, fluency, and writing, including spelling. The author thoroughly examines each of these areas, providing an overview of pertinent research, suggested methods and tools for diagnosing and assessing problems, intervention strategies and activities, and technology interventions to increase student skills. Other chapters focus on how personal experience informs teaching, formal and informal assessment methods, tutoring programs, and partnering with parents or caregivers.
