Sommario/riassunto

"English language arts and literacy teachers hope their students will meaningfully engage with reading and writing but often find learners disinterested or merely compliant. Through a hands-on approach to student-centered literacy, authors Billy Eastman and Amy Rasmussen empower readers to become teacher readers and teacher writers who inspire students to develop comprehensive and personally rewarding reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. Aimed at educators working with students in grades 6-12, Authentic Literacy Instruction: Empowering Secondary Students to Become Lifelong Readers, Writers, and Communicators informs readers of the benefits of an authentic literacy approach, guides readers in implementing effective classroom practices that center on the individual needs of learners, and enables readers to grow their expertise and model lifelong reading and writing
