Growing into Readers

edited by Kaye Lowe

Becoming a reader is an ongoing process, and Kaye Lowe invites us to reconsider it from a number of perspectives. To help us do so, she has brought together a team of accomplished teachers and asked them to share their best practice — what they’ve found works for them. Their varied perspectives include the use of literature, phonological awareness, outcomes-based learning, the writing-reading connection, the failed reader and the beginning reader. The chapters include practical ideas designed to celebrate reading and put enjoyment into teaching and learning.
