If you are a content area teacher who has been known to think - or even say out loud - I'm a _____ teacher, not a reading teacher, then Amy Benjamin's But I'm Not a Reading Teacher: Strategies for Literacy Instruction in the Content Areas is a must read. The book's four parts provide examples, strategies, and practical applications for all teachers. Additionally, at www.amybenjamin.com, teachers will find more activities and classroom ready ideas for literacy instruction. Dr. Benjamin's suggested strategies are sensible and easy for a busy teacher to implement. -Anne Anderson for MiddleWeb
