About the book
The market leader in literacy education, Literacy for the 21st Century: A Balanced Approach continues to evolve to meet the needs of a changing world, providing the balance that you need to be successful in the classroom. I invite you to step into my vision for reading and writing instruction in kindergarten through eighth-grade classrooms. In this model school, diverse groups of students meet grade-level standards while becoming confident and thoughtful readers and writers. Teachers create a classroom climate where literacy flourishes, and differentiate instruction by adjusting their lessons and providing multiple options for learning so that every student can be successful. - Publisher.
