Praise for Reading for Understanding"Reading for Understanding and the Reading Apprenticeship framework are a revelation for secondary educators. Through this framework, educators are engaged in the work of learning alongside their students and truly helping their students connect with their own metacognitive processes in a way that will benefit them far beyond their K-12 education. In this latest edition, the authors dive deeper into the concept of disciplinary literacy and inquiry which helps to build the power and agency of educators, in turn building the power and agency of students."--Lauren Spenceley, M.Ed., Secondary English Language Arts Specialist, Arizona Department of Education"I highly recommend this book for new and veteran teachers alike. Teacher credential programs stress the importance of teaching reading skills in all content areas but do not offer any specific ways. Reading for Understanding is chock full of a myriad of easy to implement, step by step ideas to teach reading skills to all levels of readers for all content areas."--June Smith, Middle School Science teacher, New Haven Unified School District"Reading for Understanding (and the Reading Apprenticeship framework) effectively complements disciplinary inquiry that centers the social aspects of learning and students' thinking, deepening students' reading and disciplinary learning."--Chauncey Monte-Sano, Professor, University of Michigan School of Education"An absolute must-read for educators that desire all their students to become independent readers in their disciplines. This research-based book maps out simple but powerful teaching approaches to ensure every learner engages in the reading process and evolves to independence."--Alana Madgwick, Director of Educatalysts: Education for Change, New Zealand"Timely, practical and relevant! This edition is replete with classroom routines from all content area classrooms and levels. A pragmatic guide, this edition dives deeper to assist teachers, professors and administrators as they uncover their habits as expert readers and learners so they can apprentice students to become more independent thinkers and learners. In this post COVID teaching and learning environment, the Reading Apprenticeship Framework is even more necessary as it meets the personal, social and emotional needs of all learners."--Amy Keith-Wardlow, Fordson High School, Assistant Principal, former K-12 Curriculum Coordinator"Bridging the gaps between new insights into disciplinary literacy, implementations of socioemotional learning into school curriculums, and the infusion of technology into texts and literacy, the third edition of Reading for Understanding brings new relevance and light to the Reading Apprenticeship framework, unlocking an even greater power for students and teachers."--Ms. Kimberly Fargier, M.Ed., 6-12th grade Literacy Specialist
