50 Literacy Strategies: Step-by-Step (4th Edition) (Books by Gail Tompkins)
My students usually keep this text. This book is captivating to students as they report that it encourages them to think from various perspectives. It is not a "recipe" type book but it contains helpful text lists, assessments and reproducible materials.Angela J. Cox, Georgetown College There are so many strategies available, hte ones listed in the book are some of the major anc successful strategies. The Instructional Focus helps to narrow down strategies to what the students wan tto build their lessons about. Grade Level Designation is very useful, allowing students to make sure they are using appropriate grade-level strategies.Deborah A. H. Williams, Wayne State University The strategies are the essential ones I would expect and do use in my course. English Language Learner features are a criticalcomponent becaue few (if any)f my students have had any interaction with ELLs and need significant help understanding second language literacy.Charlotte L.
