Description
"Effective Literacy Instruction K-8: Implementing Best Practice" helps readers connect state standards with principles of best practice instruction and implement these concepts in the K-8 reading classroom. "Effective Literacy Instruction K-8: Implementing Best Practice" describes how to develop a solid literacy framework for instruction by identifying the central principles of best practice derived from research and tied to state reading standards. Each chapter begins with a central principle of literacy instruction and then explores a wide variety of teaching strategies that support this principle. Practical Teaching Strategies feature boxes present more than 300 great teaching ideas. Celebrating Diversity describes strategies for using diversity to promote learning. Extensive Model Lessons in each chapter show how teachers implement best practice principles within their classroom. Solutions for Technology Integration Written by two of the most recognized experts in the field, this is the "first textbook" to show how to systematically integrate new technologies into literacy instruction. A series of instructional models prepares readers for the thoughtful and meaningful integration of the Internet and other technologies in the classroom. New instructional models include Internet Workshop, Internet Project, WebQuests, and Internet Inquiry. A Companion Website at www.prenhall.com/leukinzer includes links to state standards, Internet resources, on-line video segments that demonstrate best practice, self-assessment modules, and instructor resources. The authors maintain a Listserv for students and professors usingthis text, enabling them to communicate directly with the authors and share ideas and support with people using the text at other institutions worldwide.
