Reviews

Dr. Taylor's Textual Analysis Made Easy needs to be the #1 teacher book within an arm's reach at all times. It is the kind of resource that you will use over and over because of the wide variety of lessons that are essential in the middle-level classroom. I can honestly say that the methods explained in this book are some of the most immediately effective strategies that I have used in my entire 22 years of teaching. What I found most amazing was that my students were able to automatically write critically about a text within just a few short months of introduction and practice. I cannot wait to move forward with my students next year and integrate The 12 Tools into my instruction. -Leslie Snyder, 8th Grade ELA Teacher, Casa Grande Elementary School, Casa Grande, Arizona Textual Analysis Made Easy has provided our teachers with strategies that can be used over and over to enhance our students' academic achievement. Teachers in our district have implemented Dr. Taylor's strategies, and immediately student response has been astounding! Suddenly, writing is understandable and enjoyable. Not only is the content Dr. Taylor developed exciting; it is easy to understand and share with students of all ages. What a great resource for teachers who want to make evidence-based writing and literary analysis simple! -Sherry Dorathy, Ed.D., Superintendent, Miami Unified School District #40, Miami, Arizona
