A helpful guide for busy teachers

This book is loaded with practical examples and ideas that will give both novice and seasoned teachers the necessary tools and techniques to get their students to read across the curriculum successfully. I found the book especially helpful with ideas for teaching reading using content area materials. With more topics than ever before being crowded in today's curriculum, teachers must teach reading using content materials in order to cover everything that's required.
