Making the most of your time with struggling readers
Every elementary teacher deals with students who struggle as readers on a daily basis. In One Child at a Time, experienced literacy specialist and consultant Pat Johnson provides a framework she has used with hundreds of students in scores of classrooms to help teachers understand and assist individual children. The four-step process outlined in the book enables teachers to focus carefully on specific behaviors and needs, analyze them with theoretical and practical lenses, design targeted instruction, and then assess and refine the teaching in conferences with the child. Pat shows how to use this framework successfully with a range of learners, including young children, English language learners, and students in the upper elementary grades who are stalled in their literacy progress.
