Teaching Literacy in Early and Middle Childhood provides pre-service and practicing teachers with effective strategies for teaching English Language Arts. Filled with suggestions that can immediately be put to use, the anthology focuses on supporting the successful implementation of English Language Arts standards.
Featuring topics such as vocabulary instruction, teaching phonemic awareness, fostering comprehension, and the use of graphic organizers and visual strategies, each chapter of the book gives the reader a deeper understanding of specific literacy content. The readings are framed by original introductions and learning activities that support content comprehension. Readers who follow the suggested before, during, and after reading activities will benefit from complete immersion into the material.
The second edition features updated chapter introductions and seven new readings that explore phonics and mediated word identification, various approaches to teaching reading comprehension, the benefits of assisted reading, building English language learners’ academic vocabulary, and more.
Teaching Literacy in Early and Middle Childhood combines practical and theoretically sound instruction strategies for literacy with learning activities for educators. Designed as a supplement for standard textbooks, the anthology is well-suited to courses in K-6 education, English instruction, and reading.
