Summary: One Struggling Reader at a Time
Review: When Kids Can't Read, What Teachers Can Do by Kylene Beers has been inspirational and life-changing for teachers in our district. As Language Arts Instructional Specialist, working closely with the Middle Level Coordinator for a large school district, we are constantly seeking methods and materials that will enhance reading instruction and advance literacy. When Kids Can't Read provides hands-on strategies for improved reading instruction that our teachers embrace and implement immediately in their classrooms. Teachers in our district have used this book as the focus of professional literary circles, as a guide in reading classes for reluctant readers, and as the foundation to improved reading instruction across the curriculum. I have read this book cover to cover; it is an essential book for all educators striving to make a difference one struggling reader at a time.
