Filling a critical gap in teacher preparation courses, Speech to Print supplies K-12 educators with in-depth knowledge of the structure and function of language―fundamentals they need to deliver successful structured literacy instruction. Renowned literacy expert Louisa Cook Moats gives current and future teachers comprehensive, accurate, and accessible information on the underpinnings of language instruction, including:
- the history of the English language and its effect on spelling
- English phonology, including speech sounds and their distinctive features
- how print represents speech in English
- the morphological aspects of words
- syntax and its instruction
- how meaning is conveyed with language
Through case studies, activities, recommended teaching principles, and close analysis of real-world student work samples, teachers will also receive invaluable insight into how their students should be taught. Ideal for use in pre-service courses and in-service professional development sessions, this essential textbook will give educators the strong foundation they need to teach language and reading skills to students with and without disabilities.
WHAT'S NEW:
- New and expanded practical content on the how of language and reading instruction
- New and updated chapter exercises
- New faculty support materials
- More on key topics like program and curricula selection, frameworks for instructional planning, and problem solving when students are slow to respond to intervention
- More accessible, undergraduate-friendly tone and structure
- Additional graphics to illustrate key concepts

About the Author
Dr. Moats spent the next 4 years as site director of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Early Interventions Project in Washington, D.C. This longitudinal, large-scale project was conducted through a grant to the University of Texas, Houston, under the direction of Barbara Foorman. It investigated the causes and remedies for reading failure in high-poverty urban schools. Evidence from the study strongly supported the value of in-depth training for teachers on the essential components of effective instruction. During the last two decades, Dr. Moats has focused her efforts on developing courses and workshops for teachers based on her experiences at the Greenwood Institute in Vermont, St. Michael's College in Vermont, the NICHD Early Interventions Project in Washington, DC, the California Reading Initiative, and Reading First. Those professional development materials are called LETRS: Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling, published by Voyager Sopris Learning. Dr. Moats' other publications include, in addition to many journal articles, Spelling: Development, Disability, and Instruction (York Press/PRO-ED, 1995); Straight Talk About Reading: How Parents Can Make a Difference During the Early Years (with Susan Hall; Contemporary Books, 1999); Parenting a Struggling Reader: A Guide to Diagnosing and Finding Help for Your Child's Reading Difficulties (with Susan Hall; Broadway, 2002); Basic Facts About Dyslexia and Other Reading Problems (with Karen Dakin; International Dyslexia Association, 2007). She is also well known for authoring the American Federation of Teachers' (1999) Teaching Reading Is Rocket Science: What Expert Teachers of Reading Should Know and Be Able to Do.
Dr. Moats' awards include the prestigious Samuel T. and June L. Orton award from the International Dyslexia Association for outstanding contributions to the field; the Eminent Researcher Award from Learning Disabilities Australia; and the Benita Blachman award from the Reading League.
