the teacher's role in decoding, comprehension, and fluency
Cole, Ardith Davis
2004
Draws upon a qualitative study of a group of first-grade teachers to describe the processes teachers use to support children in ways that move them from pre-word readers into word reading and then fluency.
Contains fifteen short readers' theater plays on the lives of notable Americans, including George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Harriet Tubman, with background information and activities to help teach key concepts and vocabulary.
Contains strategies, lessons, and activities for using fluency instruction in prekindergarten through fourth grade, and includes teacher interviews, effectiveness studies, and resource materials.
Contains sixty projects that can be adapted to virtually any picture book, short story, novel, or nonfiction reading in order to help students develop skills in reading, writing, viewing, speaking, and listening.
