Download or read book Essentials of Assessing Preventing and Overcoming Reading Difficulties written by David A. Kilpatrick and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-08-10 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical, effective, evidence-based reading interventions that change students' lives Essentials of Understanding and Assessing Reading Difficulties is a practical, accessible, in-depth guide to reading assessment and intervention. It provides a detailed discussion of the nature and causes of reading difficulties, which will help develop the knowledge and confidence needed to accurately assess why a student is struggling. Readers will learn a framework for organizing testing results from current assessment batteries such as the WJ-IV, KTEA-3, and CTOPP-2. Case studies illustrate each of the concepts covered. A thorough discussion is provided on the assessment of phonics skills, phonological awareness, word recognition, reading fluency, and reading comprehension. Formatted for easy reading as well as quick reference, the text includes bullet points, icons, callout boxes, and other design elements to call attention to important information. Although a substantial amount of research has shown that most reading difficulties can be prevented or corrected, standard reading remediation efforts have proven largely ineffective. School psychologists are routinely called upon to evaluate students with reading difficulties and to make recommendations to address such difficulties. This book provides an overview of the best assessment and intervention techniques, backed by the most current research findings. Bridge the gap between research and practice Accurately assess the reason(s) why a student struggles in reading Improve reading skills using the most highly effective evidence-based techniques Reading may well be the most important thing students are taught during their school careers. It is a skill they will use every day of their lives; one that will dictate, in part, later life success. Struggling students need help now, and Essentials of Understanding and Assessing Reading Difficulties shows how to get these students on track.
Download or read book Reading Ability written by Charles A. Perfetti and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1985 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important new study presents the most complete account to date of verbal efficiency theory and its implications for reading disability, learning to read, and beginning reading instruction. Following a review of basic research, the author provides a thorough account of skilled reading processes and carefully delineates the reasons for differences in reading ability. Comparisions between adult and child readers and between normal readers and dyslexics illuminate the theoretical discussion and demonstrate practical applications in therapy and pedagogy. Reading Ability will be of particular interest to students and researchers in educational psychology, cognitive psychology, psycholinguistics, and reading psychology.
Download or read book Early Reading Instruction written by Diane McGuinness and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2006-01-20 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Reading Instruction is a comprehensive analysis of the research evidence from early writing systems to computer models of reading. In this book, Diane McGuinness provides an innovative solution to the "reading war"—the century-old debate over the efficacy of phonics (sound-based) versus whole-word (meaning- based) methods. She has developed a prototype—a set of elements that are critical to the success of a reading method. McGuinness shows that all writing systems, without exception, are based on a sound unit in the language. This fact, and other findings by paleographers, provides a platform for the prototype. Other elements of the prototype are based on modern research. For example, observational studies in the classroom show that time spent on three activities strongly predicts reading success: learning phoneme/symbol correspondences, practice at blending and segmenting phonemes in words, and copying/writing words, phrases, and sentences. Most so-called literacy activities have no effect, and some, like sight word memorization, have a strongly negative effect. The National Reading Panel (2000) summarized the research on reading methods after screening out thousands of studies that failed to meet minimum scientific standards. In an in-depth analysis of this evidence, McGuinness shows that the most successful methods (children reading a year or more above age norms) include all the elements in the prototype. Finally, she argues, because phonics-type methods are consistently shown to be superior to whole-word methods in studies dating back to the 1960s, it makes no sense to continue this line of research. The most urgent question for future research is how to get the most effective phonics programs into the classroom.

Download or read book Teaching Phonics in Context written by David Hornsby and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two highly respected educators, TEACHING PHONICS IN CONTEXT describes how phonics can be taught as children learn to read and write. The book looks at classrooms that shimmer and shine as children learn phonics through reading picture books, having fun with rhymes, playing with words and writing meaningful texts. It explains how within these contexts children learn the sounds of the English language and the letters of the alphabet and the relationship between them. Teaching Phonics in Context presents guidelines for teaching letter-sound patterns while debunking the myth that there is a single valid sequence of instruction and revealing commercial programs to be unnecessary and often flawed. The book also includes 'teacher knowledge' sections to provide teachers with the confidence to teach phonics through meaningful reading and writing activities.
Download or read book Equipped for Reading Success written by David Kilpatrick and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-16 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, scientists have made great strides in understanding how children learn to read, but also in how to prevent and correct most reading difficulties. However, the American Federation for Teachers, the Journal of Learning Disabilities, and School Psychology Review, have all highlighted the fact that these scientific findings have not yet become widely known or used in our schools. Equipped for Reading Success is designed to summarize these research results in a clear and easy-to-read manner, bringing teachers up-to-date on these exciting findings. More than an explanation of current research, Equipped for Reading Success is a complete program for training phonemic awareness. Research has shown that contrary to our intuitions, phonemic awareness is important for remembering the words we read (sight word recognition), not just for developing phonic decoding skills. Equipped for Reading Success uses a developmentally appropriate approach designed to boost phonemic awareness, phonics, and instant word recognition. Equipped for Reading Success also gives teachers concrete tools to help children develop a large sight vocabulary. In addition, it is designed to supplement any existing reading program or approach. Implementing the program requires minimal planning and only several minutes of instruction per day. With today's emphasis on Response to Intervention (RTI), Equipped for Reading Success provides the much needed "research-based" content to make your RTI efforts successful. Equipped for Reading Success is 1) preventive in kindergarten and first grade, 2) provides remedial help for struggling readers, and 3) can accelerate the progress of students with learning disabilities, thus providing interventions for all three tiers of RTI.
