"Reading Don't Fix No Chevys": Literacy in the Lives of Young Men

4 reviews
Michael W. Smith, Jeffrey D. Wilhelm

Heinemann, 2002

Brilliant and Inspiring for Any Teacher of Language Arts
This book significantly changed the way I, as a teacher of Language Arts, think about what we do in secondary classrooms every day. Without ever being strident or laying blame, the authors methodically, movingly demonstrate that in so many ways, most middle schools and high schools are still far off the mark in how they teach English. And yet, the answer is right there--all we have to do is ...

Jeffrey D. Wilhelm

Teachers College Press, 2007

Over a decade ago, Jeffrey Wilhelm s groundbreaking book showed educators how to think of reading as a personally meaningful, pleasurable, and productive pursuit. In the 13 years since its publication, the author has experimented with and further developed all of the techniques he first explored in You Gotta BE the Book, including visual techniques, drama and action strategies, think-aloud protocols, and symbolic story representation/reading ...

Reading Is Seeing

Teaching Resources, 2004

A Must-Have!
Reading IS Seeing is one of the most useful and informative education books I have read. It definitely deserves a place on any educator's bookshelf. Wilhelm has taken the theory behind visualization as a reading strategy and set it on the solid foundation of the learning-centered model of teaching to create a practical, teacher-friendly book. There are so many ideas and so much information ...

Great for remedial reading teachers
When I read this book last year, several months into working with an 8th grade remedial reading class consisting of all boys but two, I felt great relief to see that I was not the only teacher having such difficulties. Wilhelm used his difficult years of teaching remedial reading to kids who insisted on hating school and hating reading, and turned this experience into a practical approach to ...

Teaching Resources, 2002

A terrific resource for all teachers!
Wilhelm's book, Action Strategies for Deepening Comprehension is one of the most valuable teaching resources I own. I've had phenomenal success with the hotseating and tableaux activities, only two of the terrific resources in this great book. Kids of all ages love hotseating in particular because it's so much fun. In a nutshell: one kid gets in front of the room (I drape a piece of red fabric ...

Strategic Reading: Guiding Students to Lifelong Literacy, 6-12
Tanya N. Baker, Jeffrey D. Wilhelm, ...

Boynton/Cook, 2001

Jeffrey Wilhelm and his coauthors know that before reading can be learned, it must be taught. As students move on to more challenging texts in middle and high school, their reading skills don't grow automatically to meet those demands. They need help figuring out how to read, not just what to read. Strategic Reading provides the tools teachers need to help students of all abilities make this important transition to higher-level texts. ...

Imagining to Learn: Inquiry, Ethics, and Integration Through Drama

2 reviews
Brian Edmiston, Jeffrey D. Wilhelm

Heinemann Drama, 1998

Easy to read and full of ideas!
IMAGINING TO LEARN is the most readable of the five books I have read on process drama. Wilhelm and Edmiston write with personality, which seems to be rare in the field. I found seventeen drama strategies scattered through the book. Having these strategies close at hand makes it easier to guide the students as they take off with a topic. The chapter on using drama for inquiry was ...

The essays address pedagogical issues surrounding censorship and student choice in the classroom, but also include very practical information like ideas for activities, discussions of different popular novels for adolescents, and ...
