Synopsis

This teaching manual presents reading and writing from a middle school and secondary school perspective. The major focus of the text is on classroom instruction, and it aims to give teachers sound, theory-based instructional strategies for increasing their teaching effectiveness and developing their students' literacy/learning abilities. Topics discussed include: co-operative learning; portfolio assessment; reading and writing across the curriculum; thematic instruction and learned instruction across subject areas; developing lifelong readers and writers; second language learning; giftedness; and gender differences. Throughout the text, attention is given to issues of cultural and language diversity and the changing needs of middle school and secondary school populations.
