Synopsis

Authored by two of the most respected literacy researchers, Teaching Through Textfocuses on describing, illustrating, and applying both teacher-directed and student-centered strategies for content area literacy in middle and secondary grades. This balanced approach of how student-centered and teacher-centered strategies are implemented in the classroom makes this text distinct from the rest by attending to students’ different learning styles. Student-centered strategies are illustrated through graphic organizers, concept bridges, and applicable exercises. Taking a unique stance, McKenna and Robinson rethink the way content literacy is taught by describing it in the context of multiple literacies.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Rave Reviews for the Fourth Edition of
Teaching Through Text:

“The major strengths of this text are its elegant conceptual frame (first the global lesson planning frameworks and then the before-during-after reading strategies) and its conscious use of connections to technology.”
Sharon Walpole, University of Delaware

“Due to the extra care the authors took to make Teaching Through Text a ‘real-life example’ of a reader-friendly textbook, the text itself becomes a more accessible, and therefore more rewarding text from which to learn about content area literacy instruction.”
Laura Jones, Nazareth College of Rochester

“It is an easy text to read and use. Summaries are brief and provide a nice closure to the chapters. Content information is easily located and dissected for class discussion and presentation.”
Isaac Willis Larison, Xavier University
