Why has comprehension instruction become so complex?Sharon Taberski cuts through the pressurized, strategy-overloaded, fluency-crazed atmosphere surrounding reading instruction to lay out the reading and writing workshop practices that are most effective in developing readers in the primary grades. She shares the daily how-tos needed to sustain a literacy block that engages children in authentic reading and writing practices including dozens of effective practices that illustrate amazing ways to organize instructional and independent reading for kids including: letter and sound searches that improve students' word accuracy and fluency companion books bags that develop their confidence and comprehension strategy sheets that make children's thinking about text concrete a Putting Our Strategies to Work Board that enables students to discuss strategies with classmates Idea Books and Ta-da Publishing Books that develop children's understanding that texts are written by authors."" ""The point is, it's all about comprehension. Each goal, each strategy, each skill, each facet of our teaching should help children refine their ability to make sense of what they read and write. Children's understanding develops through many opportunities to read, to write, and to talk, so we need to simplify our instruction by seeding our literacy block with opportunities for children to rub elbows with lots of texts-deliberately, explicitly, and with a touch of pizzazz.""-Sharon Taberski Book study groups and professional learning communities click here to save 15% when you order 15 copies of "Comprehension from the Ground Up"-save $61.87 PLUS Two Options for dynamic DVD-based staff development: for your workshop or PLC, the "Lessons from the Ground Up DVD "features 105-minutes of video clips of Sharon in the classroom, modeling effective ways to develop comprehension plus a 64-page facilitator's guide supports the DVD, lesson by lesson.
