Whole Language: Inquiring Voices

The authors tried to live their theoretical models of language & learning in their teaching, & in their interaction with teachers & children. They spent considerable time in classrooms putting their theories to the test. Over 15 years, they gave workshops, made video tapes, conducted research projects, shared doctoral students, stolen strategy lessons & language samples, & partied, everything together. Then wrote this book, in which they share their vision for the future of whole language: 'inquiring voices' is their image for the collaborative approach they use & recommend.
