Teach a Child to Read with Children's Books Fourth Edition

Timing is the key to success with emerging child readers of all ages. Thogmartin and Gallagher skillfully present and guide the reader through a process of recognition and reinforcement that customizes reading instruction to the specific child. Foundational reading skills are introduced as the child's natural desire to learn develops. When the skill being introduced is relevant to a child's desire to learn both teaching and learning become exciting, even joyful experiences! Thogmartin and Gallagher approach reading instruction from a particular perspective: nurturing lifelong learners. Written specifically for parents, tutors and teachers who work one-on-one with children learning to read, this book takes a comprehensive approach that provides tools to identify and implement research-based, instruction strategies without dampening a child's enthusiasm for reading and learning.
