Developing Reading Skills

Linda R. Markstein

Developing Reading Skills

Authentic, high-interest passages are paired with reading, writing, comprehension, and discussion activities that integrate new skills and ideas into students' knowledge and experience.
-- A thematic organization in each book allows for natural recycling and spiralling of concepts, vocabulary, and syntactic structures, and develops a comprehensive range of reading skills that promote critical thinking and writing skills.
-- Pre-reading activities activate background knowledge and set the stage for successful integration of new ideas and concepts.
-- Three interesting reading selections per unit, drawn from a variety of genres, promote the acquisition of a diverse and broad-based set of reading skills.

Compelling themes include Names and Naming Customs, Cities, Education, Sports, and Superstitions.
