Engaging Children Through Understanding What They Read

Engaging children in books and loving reading is a natural next step when they understand and go to a deeper level to embrace books. Another must-have for kids 4-8 are 2 fabulous pieces of children's literature with invaluable teaching guides for parents and teachers:The Big Squeal: A Wild, True, and Twisted Tail and
Life's Little Lessons: An Inch-By-Inch Tale of Success...which teach those all important early reading skills and develop a love for reading !

The Best book for the classroom

This is an AWESOME book. I had the opportunity to listen to Stephanie Harvey talk and she is amazing! This book makes such perfect common sense. We use the Comprehension toolkit in our school and this book goes right along with it. I actually want to expand and use this book more. It is great not only for the language arts classroom but for all content area classes. This is a must have for your professional library!!!!

When they say K-8...they mean it

Most of the reviews mention what a great teaching tool this is so I thought why can't it work for me? I'm an adult that was looking for a book to help increase my reading comprehension. My thoughts were to to go back to the beginning. Though there were some good ideas, this book was by far elementary. It does cover the basic reading comprehension skills about making connections, questioning, visualizing, inferring, etc. However, the articles, examples, drawings are all written for and by children. I can 100% understand how elementary teachers and children could benefit from this book. But if you are an adult who struggles with reading comprehension this is NOT the book for you. My suggestion is to try "Read Better, Remember More" by Elizabeth Chesla. It is fantasic. It has exceptional practice exercises and skill building ideas that can help you become a good reader who interacts with the text.
