Now in a revised and updated fourth edition with 50% new material, this highly practical book guides teachers to demystify the reading process for K-8 students who are struggling. Thirty detailed lesson examples illustrate ways to explain and scaffold skills and strategies as an integral part of purposeful, motivating reading tasks. Teachers can use these examples as starting points for explicit instruction that meets their own students' particular needs. The book shows how to give students the "secrets" of understanding--and appreciating--both literature and informational texts. Numerous text boxes clarify key concepts and share adaptations for different grade levels.

New to This Edition

  • Many of the 30 examples are new or revised, and give increased attention to reading/n-/writing integration.
  • Chapter on classroom experiences that promote reading for meaning.
  • Chapter on organizing and managing differentiated instruction, including for English learners.
  • New discussions of student motivation and agency.
