Omschrijving
Written with a focus on the English Language Arts Common Core Standards, this book provides a complete plan for developing a literacy program that focuses on boys pre-K through grade 12.
Despite the fact that reading and literacy among boys has been an area of concern for years, this issue remains unresolved today.
Authored by the owner of Cognitive Advantage and former elementary teacher for grades K-12, as well as a library media specialist, this work focuses on two areas of need—raising literacy levels in boys in particular, and the Common Core standards that are being implemented in schools across the United States. . . . While the title implies the book is geared toward working with boys, many of the resources and ideas will work schoolwide with children of both genders. School librarians at the elementary, middle, and high school levels will all benefit from this work . . . Public librarians working with children in K-12 will also benefit, as will classroom teachers seeking titles and ideas for integrating literature across the curriculum.
Liz Knowles, EdD, is owner of Cognitive Advantage, a one-on-one cognitive coaching business. Martha Smith has been a media specialist for more than 30 years in the pre-K through 8th grade setting.
