- Summary:
-
"School library media specialists are increasingly expected to provide reading instruction to students, yet many see primary age students for as little as twelve hours each week. This book provides support for reading instruction in the elementary school library media center. Quick, self-contained lessons - ideal for the media specialist trying to teach reading instruction in limited periods of time - focus on commonly taught reading strategies, such as sequencing, compare and contrast, and prediction. Each chapter explains a strategy and provides an in-depth modeled discussion of how to use that strategy with newly published picture books. An annotated bibliography of other books that would lend themselves to the teaching of the strategy is included, as are reproducible templates to make laminated graphic organizers that can be used again and again.
Designed for use with students in grades K-3, this book contains a wealth of practical instructional material that both elementary classroom teachers and library media specialists will find helpful in supporting their reading programs."--BOOK JACKET.
