Recenzii

"Irene Gaskins has spent over 30 years shaping Benchmark School into an optimal form of education for struggling readers. Most researchers do not move beyond their dreams when they envision the ideal school or curriculum, but Gaskins is the exception...Educators can learn much about effective teaching and learning from every chapter of this fascinating book. The staff at Benchmark has encountered most of the problems facing elementary and middle grade teachers and principals, and this book provides a picture of the solutions they found to be most effective. Written with expertise and sensitivity, Gaskins's observations, analyses, findings, and solutions will prove informative, eye-opening, and even surprising to teachers in search of new ideas and inspiration."-Linnea C. Ehri, PhD, Program in Educational Psychology, Graduate Center, City University of New York "Highly recommended reading for educators seeking a better understanding of what really works for struggling readers, with answers that may surprise you. In this volume the legendary Irene Gaskins shares insights gained in applying research to help hundreds of struggling readers find success. As expected, Gaskins provides detailed information on the systematic instruction in word identification and comprehension that has made Benchmark School famous. I appreciated the wealth of classroom examples showing how teachers can actually help struggling readers, not just with the technicalities of reading but with necessary life skills such as good, old-fashioned self-discipline."-Kathryn H. Au, PhD, College of Education, University of Hawaii
