Second Edition
Research-Based Best Practices
Edited by Cathy Collins Block and Sheri R. Parris
Foreword by Lesley Mandel Morrow
"This is a book that needs to be read by all educators! This second edition examines groundbreaking research that is becoming more important in education today, such as the brain processes involved in the ability to comprehend text. This book is an invaluable resource for teachers of all grade levels who are serious about reading and comprehension."
-John Scovill, Jr., third-grade teacher, Washington County School District, St. George, Utah
"This volume, a most worthy follow-up to the first edition, gets to the heart of how we comprehend text and how to best foster the development of comprehension in students. The array of topics and the quality of the chapters contribute breadth and depth to the ongoing evolution of knowledge in this critical area. This book is well situated at the convergence of theory and practice and, as such, I recommend it for graduate courses for teachers and researchers."
