Why our kids aren't learning to read. The insiders' perspective : excuses and explanations from the trenches. On the outside looking in : what the critics charge is wrong with reading instruction. The experts check in : researchers, consultants, professors, and other ivory tower types. What's a principal to do?
The great debate : phonics vs. whole language. The reading instruction glossary : key words to know. The reading wars : a crash course in history. Why are we divided? Where do you stand? How can you make sense of this debate? Who can you believe? What's a principal to do?
What do you need to make it happen? Principals do make a difference : instructional leadership. You can't do it all on your own : shared decision making. Look before you leap : planning for change. Teachers make a difference too : instructional effectiveness. Get mom and dad on your side : parental involvement. Know your ABC's : articulated, balanced curriculum. What get's measured gets done : assessment and accountability. Take your time : the 5-year plan. The road to reading improvement : the big ideas. What else will it take?
