SUPERB November 1, 2008 This is a wonderful way to engage children in reading. I love it as does my teaching partner. SO glad we read it!
The Daily Five: Fostering Literacy Independence in the Elementary Grades October 17, 2008 I would highly recommend this book. It is a straight forward guide for teaching reading in the classroom. I implemented strategies immediately in my 1st grade classroom and the suggestions in this book are working very well.
what a difference September 21, 2008 My district has used a reading and writing workshop approach for at least ten years. This book has truly helped me to step back and take the time needed at the beginning of the year to establish strong routines. I don't believe the information is new, it is just laid out in a consise, reader friendly manner. My students are much more on-task and quiet during literacy work times. The "first 25 days" quidelines have been invaluable for lesson planning and getting my school year off to a successful start!
User Friendly September 14, 2008 This book is a great way to introduce literacy activities to a class. It helps the teacher and students become comfortable with reading and writing. It also helps the students work independently without teacher support. I highly recommend this book to all elementary school teachers.
Inspiring and helpful September 11, 2008 This is one of the few education books that I really looked forward to reading and learning more about the philosophy. Even if your school has a set idea of how Language Arts/Reading periods should look, there are some fabulous theories and strategies that can be implemented!
