Reading Reconsidered

This book provides actionable guidance from real-life educators and instructional champions.

It is divided into two parts: 'The Core of the Core' and 'The Fundamentals'.

The first part focuses on four key ideas from the Common Core: reading harder texts, close reading, reading more nonfiction, and writing directly from the text.

The second part delves into the fundamentals of reading instruction, including vocabulary, interactive reading, and student autonomy.

The book includes over 40 video clips of outstanding teachers and is grounded in advice from successful classrooms nationwide.
