Offers an alternate approach where you build comprehension of texts collectively and as you read them together. What I liked best about it was that after presenting the process, the rest of the book detailed potential problems teachers could fall into and how to troubleshoot them. I definitely feel like this book offers a substantial framework to a gap in teaching reading.

While this book focuses on late-elementary ages, I can still see applications at the high school level. The BEST part of the book were the 25 cases that composes the second half of the text. All of the real-world examples and opportunities to practice on my own were VERY helpful. This book IS about a "powerful approach" that I KNOW will change what I do in my classroom!

Mostly I focused on the parts about where/how to segment a text for inserting questions. I was thinking about the best places to check for understanding among English-learning students.

This was a tough read for me, and most of the information seemed to be strategies I could find from using the internet or speaking with colleagues.
