Title: Literacy at the crossroads
First published: 1996
Description: Literacy at the Crossroads must be read by anyone concerned about the current state of reading and writing instruction in America. Routman asserts that teachers can no longer remain silent as the campaign for "back to basics" teaching grows stronger. So much of the criticism is based on misconceptions about what constitutes good teaching - here is a book that clarifies issues, offers suggestions, and provides the impetus necessary to make a difference.
