Summary:

"Secondary teachers increasingly report low reading proficiency among their students. With low literacy scores pervasive across North America, reading instruction is no longer just for primary school teachers. Research demonstrates that secondary students need widespread literacy intervention if we hope to change these trends. But how might secondary teachers address this urgent need when they're not literacy experts or reading teachers? And how can they be sure their efforts are effective? Inspiring Lifelong Readers: Using Inquiry to Engage Learners in Grades 6-12 by Jennifer McCarty Plucker equips secondary teachers with the intervention strategies that achieve lasting results. Grounded in practices that promote adolescent literacy, complex literacy learning, motivation, and engagement, Inspiring Lifelong Readers provides secondary teachers with a tried-and-true, evidence-based intervention program that will bolster struggling students to become competent and confident readers"-- Provided by publisher.
