reading teacher

I teach a reading class for strugglers and I found "I Read it But I don't get it" to be a GREAT resource for teaching strugglers. Maybe this book is better for on level readers and their teachers?

Great Book for Teachers

We are all reading teachers. We must teach the students to read so they will be able to succeed in all subjects.

This book has strategies for all teachers. The author makes some good points when describing an encounter with an industrial arts teacher who said, "students don't have to read in my class."

This book will show you how to make connections in your subject area to reading.

If you teach a student to read, they can do anything.

Amazing

This book really speaks to the reader and teachers. Cris Tovani is very hilarious when makiing comparisons to other subjects and students. This book is a must have for teachers that experience the hardships of trying to get students read with a purpose.

A good idea, but...

I recently reviewed Subjects Matter, which is the same basic concept of this book. I feel the same about both books. I was assigned both books while obtaining my teaching certificate in college. They have useful strategies for helping student learn to read different types of books but the authors assume the teachers have extra time in class to teach these tactics. Unfortunately, most high school teachers are hampered by the amount of information to teach in their subject areas that it is difficult to implement the books' suggestions. Teachers can help those students during tutoring which makes the books useful.

I believe these books are great for middle school teacher who are not under the TAKS test deadline as in high school, especially 11th grade teachers.

Good book for educators

I bought this book for one of my graduate classes on teaching reading in subject areas that don't normally cover it. It's very insightful, and there are a lot of helpful suggestions.
