An excellent, research-based resource for pre-service and new teachers alike, Teaching Children to Read by Reutzel and Cooter provides teachers with information critical to their students’ development into capable and confident readers in an era of the Common Core Standards. It offers a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to reading instruction in a format that highlights the centrality of the teacher’s role. The Seventh Edition retains its easy-to-use format that organizes the chapters by the seven pillars of effective reading instruction, color-coded for easy navigation: Teacher Knowledge, Assessment, Evidence-Based Teaching Strategies, Response to Intervention, Student Motivation and Engagement, Technology and New Literacies, and Family and Community Connections. Each chapter includes learning outcomes, key terms, classroom vignettes, classroom photos, student work examples, figures and tables, recommended readings, end of chapter activities, and more to motivate students and reinforce learning. The new edition is available as an enhanced e-book with hotlinks to videos, classroom materials, websites, interactive Chapter Assessments with feedback to correct answers, and to relevant Common Core and IRA standards for each chapter.
