Teaching Reading Comprehension

by Allison Davis

The Effective Teaching Series provides teachers and teacher educators with research-based strategies and ideas for literacy instruction. Every book in the series makes the research base for teaching practice explicit, and bridges the gap between theory and practice by relating content to the everyday experiences of teachers in classrooms. The series makes strong connections between what teachers do and how their students learn.
