Summary:

Since publication of the first edition of this book, the editors have seen an increase in attention to struggling readers in the middle elementary and later school years, and a small increase in literacy achievement on national assessments. For the second-edition text, 26 academics and educational consultants contribute 12 chapters discussing strategies and interventions to help continue the upward trend in literacy development. Coverage includes the development of literacy skills foundations; self-monitoring and comprehension research and theory, and its practical implications; and expanding policies, initiatives, and interventions beyond individual classrooms to school- and district-wide levels. The second edition incorporates the latest research and instructional strategies, and each chapter now ends with suggestions for readers to act on the ideas presented.
