Reading Instruction and Assessment: Understanding the IRA Standards
Book details
Summary
Description
This book discusses and provides teaching recommendations for the International Reading Association's Standards for Reading Professionals, Revised, 1998. This is a book like no other in the market. In an eloquent and user-friendly manner, Armbruster and Osborn-both well-known in reading instruction-explain and elaborate the most recent reading standards published by the International Reading Association (Standards for Reading Professionals, Revised, 1998). These standards are proficiency-based, focused on Knowledge and Beliefs, Instruction and Assessment, Organizing Literacy Programs, and they have been "translated" for prospective and in-service teachers into doable teaching strategies that support the standards. In addition, the authors integrate information about current standards in other states (e.g., California, Texas, and Illinois) throughout the book. For prospective and in-service elementary level language arts teachers.
