Publisher's Synopsis
Appropriate for upper level undergraduate education courses in Reading Instruction.
This is an excellent guide for learning about the Direct Instruction method that is gaining wide attention as part of a balanced approach to reading instruction . . . with its wealth of carefully sequenced, highly-prescriptive procedures for teaching decoding, comprehension, content, and study skills. Rather than merely "list" ways to teach reading skills, the Direct Instructional Reading method this text recommends, discusses when a skill should be taught, what examples to teach, how to correct errors, and the relationship among different reading skills.
