How severe is the literacy gap in our schools? Why does the nine-year-old child from a culturally disadvantaged background so often fall victim to the fourth-grade slump? Although the cognitive abilities of these "children at risk" may be consistent with the norm, their literacy development lags far behind that of other children. In The Reading Crisis, the renowned reading specialist Jeanne Chall and her colleagues examine the causes of this disparity and suggest some remedies. Using Chall's widely applied model of reading development, the authors examine the strengths and weaknesses in the reading, writing, and language development of children from low-income families in an attempt to identify the onset of their difficulties. They show how, in the transition from learning the medium to understanding the message, the demands on children's reading skills become significantly more complex. The crucial point is fourth grade, when students confront texts containing unfamiliar words and ideas that are beyond the range of their own experience. According to Chall's findings, the lack of specific literacy skills-not cognitive factors-explains the deceleration in the reading and writing development of low-income children. The authors outline an active role for the schools in remedying weaknesses in literacy development, and give suggestions for the home and the community. Their recommendations address both practical issues in instruction and the teacher-student dynamic that fosters literacy development. Table of Contents: Preface Acknowledgments 1.

"The book in question starts by looking at a teacher lament that Carol hears whenever she speaks to teachers: kids don't read. The book continues by examining how/why teachers make their myriad classroom decisions each day and drawing on the work of great thinkers and writers from outside education to inform and broaden that decision-making. Subsequent chapters offer instructional moves for guiding students into and through classical texts, which continue to be read because--not in spite--of their continued relevance to contemporary readers. 'Quirky' book lists (not 'Best Books for 8th Graders' but more like 'Books to Grab when Leaving a Burning House') draw the book to a conclusion"--

More than 80 percent of students who fail to earn a high school diploma were struggling readers in third grade. We all want our children to learn and thrive. We want them to achieve measurable success-and live up to the vast potential inside each of them. But in order to do that, we must tackle the biggest problem facing America today: reading. Without proper reading skills, our workforce is less robust, job opportuni- ties are more limited and people's lives are held hostage as their own self-worth becomes diminished. Yet, the pandemic brought forth valuable lessons. The global crisis shed light on another, lesser known, pandemic already in play for children across America. At first, parents, teachers, and other educators grappled with online teaching. Then, however, came profound lessons about teaching reading to young students-and the success that followed-because of virtual education. America's Embarrassing Reading Crisis: WHAT WE LEARNED FROM COVID is a reality check on an issue we have long been avoiding. Now, there are no more excuses; it's time to take action. This book blends the pre-covid methods and theory placed within classrooms and homes and blends them into strategies that work in today's environment. Author and accomplished educator Lisa Richardson Hassler dives into her own struggles and triumphs as a mother and teacher to provide solutions to parents, teachers, and educational leaders in order to set our students up for successful futures. The key to raising successful children is setting the stage for being a successful adult. Hassler is not only sounding the alarm with this book some educators are calling "a must-read for modern classrooms" she's offering framework by which to ensure young readers are reading on grade level starting today.

Many "reading disabled" kids have nothing wrong with them other than the fact that they are victims of a faulty instructional method called Whole Word. From 1930-1975, Whole Word was known as the Look/Say method. From 1975-2000, it was called Whole Language. Since 2000, the newest version of Whole Word goes by the name "Balanced Literacy." All Whole Word programs start reading instruction with memorized "sight words" and guessing strategies. Many of our kids, including some of our brightest, can't learn to read in such a manner because it's not logical - it makes no sense to them. Parents can solve this problem by teaching their child to read themselves, using the method recommended by the National Reading Panel: Synthetic Phonics. This book will guide you at each step along the way as you reclaim control of your child's future.
