Download or read book Reading Reconsidered written by Doug Lemov and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TEACH YOUR STUDENTS TO READ WITH PRECISION AND INSIGHT The world we are preparing our students to succeed in is one bound together by words and phrases. Our students learn their literature, history, math, science, or art via a firm foundation of strong reading skills. When we teach students to read with precision, rigor, and insight, we are truly handing over the key to the kingdom. Of all the subjects we teach reading is first among equals. Grounded in advice from effective classrooms nationwide, enhanced with more than 40 video clips, Reading Reconsidered takes you into the trenches with actionable guidance from real-life educators and instructional champions. The authors address the anxiety-inducing world of Common Core State Standards, distilling from those standards four key ideas that help hone teaching practices both generally and in preparation for assessments. This 'Core of the Core' comprises the first half of the book and instructs educators on how to teach students to: read harder texts, 'closely read' texts rigorously and intentionally, read nonfiction more effectively, and write more effectively in direct response to texts. The second half of Reading Reconsidered reinforces these principles, coupling them with the 'fundamentals' of reading instruction—a host of techniques and subject specific tools to reconsider how teachers approach such essential topics as vocabulary, interactive reading, and student autonomy. Reading Reconsidered breaks an overly broad issue into clear, easy-to-implement approaches. Filled with practical tools, including: 44 video clips of exemplar teachers demonstrating the techniques and principles in their classrooms (note: for online access of this content, please visit my.teachlikeachampion.com) Recommended book lists Downloadable tips and templates on key topics like reading nonfiction, vocabulary instruction, and literary terms and definitions. Reading Reconsidered provides the framework necessary for teachers to ensure that students forge futures as lifelong readers.

Download or read book Champion Reading written by Jennifer Wozny and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-10-11 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Champion Reading is a reading enhancement course which provides immediate and measurable results. You are going to learn how to read faster with better concentration, comprehension, and retention. You will also learn how to use mind maps to remember, more efficiently and effectively, what you have read. This book has been written to introduce speed reading to you in an easy and non-technical way, so that you can learn this highly valuable life-skill. Power Learning was started in 1983 by Jennifer Wozny in Houston, Texas, U.S.A. The course she developed, Champion Reading, was formerly known as Power Reading, but the name was changed to more adequately reflect what the course was achieving for Mrs. Wozny's students. Students became champion readers and learners. Champion Reading is the vision of Jennifer Wozny. Students were reporting that grades increased, self-esteem was soaring, and that previously poor results on timed tests, due to not being able to finish in the allotted time span, were a thing of the past! She began the company because she felt that generic speed reading was not delivering what students actually needed to succeed. Amid the throes of rearing her three children during their school and college careers, she also gained insight into the skills students were not being taught for immediate and lasting academic success. After lots of trial and error, research and years of experience, we can now offer the basics of this most excellent reading enhancement course. This volume is the culmination of many years of teaching thousands of students this constantly evolving skill. Jennifer is a native of London, England, receiving her education there before coming to the United States in 1969. This course has been taught successfully at public and private schools, universities, corporations, and to individuals at the Power Learning Centers in Houston, Texas. Power Learning has been teaching the Champion Reading course (formerly known as Power Reading) in the Houston, Texas area since the 1980's. Further on in this book there are three lessons with detailed instructions that will enable you to get the foundation of this valuable skill.
