A 'must have' reference.

The second updated edition of a classic re-focuses and enhances five basic concepts for raising reading achievement using seven cognitive strategies. Far from being the author's own regimen, Raising Reading Achievement in Middle and High Schools is based on twenty resreach-based reading strategies, incorporating these into a teacher's daily curriculum and routines and helping teachers with students who can't seem to learn to read. New programs designed for adolescent learners also provide updates to developmental tools, evaluation methods and programs, and more. A 'must have' reference. Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch
