Product Description:
Building Student Literacy Through Sustained Silent Reading offers a practical solution for teachers who want to improve students’ reading ability: Let students choose what they read and give them the time to read it.
Gardiner also explores research both for and against SSR as well as reactions from other teachers, students, and administrators to examine the program’s effect on literacy--from reading proficiency to vocabulary and spelling skills, from content comprehension to writing. He demonstrates how teachers can adapt SSR for their classes’ unique needs without interfering with mandated curriculum or lesson plans.
In an environment where reading is an essential part of all subjects, Building Student Literacy Through Sustained Silent Reading shows how a simple and inexpensive program can not only help students achieve greater success in school, but give them a precious, lifelong gift of the joy of reading.
