Also, with the steady decline of reading ability in our youth, they need more opportunity to read in and out of school. This book aids both these issues by discussing in detail how childrenÕs trade books can be used to achieve national standards in the content areas (math, science, and social studies). KEY TOPICS: The authors begin with a concise discussion of the national standards and explain how they translate into usable teaching methods. This book is a valuable guide not only to understanding the standards, but to finding practical, innovative ways of achieving them through the use of informational books. Current and future teachers.
