Description: "In Responsive Literacy Coaching, Cheryl Dozier draws on twenty-four years of experience as an elementary classroom teacher and teacher educator to present both a theoretical framework and practical tools for responsive literacy coaching. Through thoughtful and purposeful coaching, teachers learn multiple ways to improve literacy instruction and student achievement." "The range of approaches offered in the text invite customization based on the reader's specific instructional context. The framework empowers literacy coaches and teachers through conversation, sustained engagement, and reflective analysis. Dozier argues that at its best, literacy coaching is responsive, collegial, thoughtful, thought-provoking, deliberate, reflective, and transferable."--Jacket.
