Teach On

by David Hornsby, Jo-Ann Parry

This book is currently out of stock with a ready about date of October 31, 1999.Teach On recognizes the importance of two first, that for effective learning to occur, teachers must "tune in" to children's strengths and needs; second, that they must teach! This practical book outlines several teaching strategies and procedures that have been successful in classrooms where whole language philosophy guides the teacher's program. The procedures described in Teach On provide teachers with ways of teaching literacy skills and strategies in context. Every procedure detailed can be used with a group of children and some may also be appropriate for whole-class instruction. Some will look they are not new, but have been adapted from well-tried procedures that have been a part of many successful classroom programs; others are more recent in development. All are being used successfully, and the authors provide samples of both teachers' and children's work-in-progress.
