About this title

Synopsis

This book combines new and time-tested approaches to reading problems and adds practical instructional strategies, assessment tools, discussion of the research, and an informal reading inventory that students can use immediately.

The book distills many different approaches to teaching students with reading problems and presents them in an approachable, balanced, and readable format. Early chapters present general information on the reading process, problem readers, assessment, and principles of instruction. Later chapters provide in-depth information on strategies for teaching various parts of the literacy process and concluding chapters detail successful intervention programs and teaching in diverse and inclusive settings.

Reading Problems is extremely practical, presenting many informal assessment tools and strategies. Yet it also presents research on intervention programs and multicultural strategies, and extensive descriptions of tests. The needs of adolescents and adults are also emphasized.

Review

“The assessment information is ordered in an appropriate meaningful way. I especially like the fact that students can go to the website and download an IRI.” -Dr. Priscilla Leggett, Fayetteville State University

“I like how assessment is embedded with text topics as well as with teaching strategies favoring developing readers and writers. [The] text goes into greater detail about the causes of reading problems and addresses the nature versus nurture question better than I have seen in other texts. It does have very good coverage of assessment and teaching strategies for the reading process.” -Terrence V. Stange, Marshall University

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
