Best Practices in Action
Edited by Linda B. Gambrell and Lesley Mandel Morrow
Connecting research findings to daily classroom practice is a key component of successful teaching—and any teacher can accomplish it, with the right tools. The Best Practices in Action series focuses on what elementary and middle grade teachers need to do "on Monday morning" to plan and implement high-quality literacy instruction and assess student learning. Books in the series are practical, accessible, and firmly grounded in research. Each title provides ready-to-use lesson ideas, engaging classroom vignettes, discussion questions and engagement activities ideal for professional learning communities, and reproducible materials that purchasers can download and print.
