Give your elementary school students the tools to become thoughtful, high-achieving readers!

Strong reading skills are critical for students as they progress through the grade levels and face the reading challenges of the 21st century. Using research-based, differentiated strategies, Richard W. Strong, Harvey F. Silver, and Matthew J. Perini show how you can teach average or low-performing readers to become A+ readers who can comprehend, analyze, and summarize different kinds of texts.

Starting with a concise overview of recent research on successful readers, the authors explore seven key areas and corresponding strategies to help all readers achieve at high levels: identifying the main idea, reading fluency, vocabulary, inferential reading, questioning techniques, informal writing, and reading styles.

Complementing the best-selling Reading for Academic Success for grades 7-12, this hands-on guide features:

  • Practical applications that can be used across content areas and to support individual learning styles
  • The five common characteristics of A+ readers and special tips for nurturing those abilities in all students
  • Recommendations and tools for helping English Language Learners and students with special needs
  • Examples of student work and reproducible graphic organizers

Expressly designed for elementary school teachers, Reading for Academic Success, Grades 2-6, offers proven methods that can produce significant gains for all students and far-reaching results for your school!
