Description: "Supported Literacy for Adolescents introduces an instructional framework for preparing secondary students to succeed academically in a fast-changing and globally networked world. Filled with examples from science, history, literature, and special education classrooms, the book shows how teachers can enable all students, including underperformers, to develop critical thinking and other essential competencies along with the "multiliteracy" tools needed to engage in twenty-first century content learning."--Jacket.
