This book arrived in a few days and was in great condition. Would buy from this seller again.

Great reference!

As an educational diagnostician I'm always looking for different resources to help teachers. This book is written in a practical format with excellent strategies.

EXCELLENT and practical resource with ideas you can start using TODAY!

This book is easy to read and loaded with practical, easy- to- use ideas to support instruction of comprehension, fluency, vocabulary and phonics. The BEST part are pages 10-18, which is an "If/Then" chart related to reading behaviors. For example, "IF a child reads orally, but struggles to comprehend, THEN.... try say something ( one of several strategies listed on the chart)!! Even better; if you are unfamiliar with the listed strategy, it is explained in the chapter relating to that area in the book. This is a teacher's book... you can reflect on your student's observed reading behaviors today, read a chapter of the book tonight and use the instructional strategy tomorrow. EXCELLENT!! I have used this book with three teacher book clubs/study groups and have not found a teacher that didn't appreciate the practical, easy, ideas to use.
