Reviews
This excellent book is needed now more than ever as we embrace rapidly changing demographics in our classrooms. The authors offer best practices that are grounded in research and theory and that reach beyond the National Reading Panel's five literacy pillars. Classroom teachers, literacy coaches, and students in teacher training programs need to read this book and keep it handy for reference during the school year. - Deborah A. Wooten, Department of Theory and Practice in Teacher Education, University of Tennessee, USA McIntyre et al. present the latest thinking on ways to deliver culturally relevant literacy instruction that is both powerful and engaging. Perhaps the greatest assets of the book are its focus on dialogic instruction and its practical voice: the authors have created a vision of effective classroom teaching that aligns with current realities. This book is a 'must read' for teachers looking for a strong professional development resource. It is also a great foundational text for undergraduate reading methods courses. - Robert B. Cooter, Jr., Professor and Ursuline Endowed Chair of Teacher Education, Bellarmine University, USA
