Customer Reviews

Literature activites

This product has been useful for classroom lessons. I have used the activities in there to help struggling readers and the activities make it an enjoyable learning experience. The activities can also be student lead. There are many different levels to use with all grades. Some focuses are phonic development and phonological awareness, and it uses a language approach.

Excellent Resource

Creating Strategic Readers is a valuable resource for elementary teachers. It is an excellent mix of theory, research, and practicality! Each of the 5 components of reading, as identified by the National Reading Panel in 2000, is addressed. You will want to have your own copy!

Reading help

This book is a great resource for helping emergent readers. I will be using this alot in my classroom in the future.

Valerie Puts It All Together!

This book takes all the "stuff" we keep hearing about 90min blocks, guided reding, CAI, Shared reasding, etc. and puts is all together in a simple way that makes sense! Ideas you can take and use right away in your classroom and see results. A must for all primary reading teachers!

Great teacher resource

I recommend this book for primary teachers and reading specialists. It can spice up a current curriculum or help those just starting out. It has great blackline masters and ideas for spicing up your current curriculum. It works with Fountas & Pinnell, Reading First and any basal. Anyone can use it and benefit from it. I have taught 1st grade for 6 years and I think the book is great! It is not too wordy and has a lot of great ideas to keep my curriculum up to date.
