Riassunto:

50 Strategies for Improving Vocabulary, Comprehension, and Fluency offers a practical approach of step-by-step instructional procedures for developing key literacy skills. Each strategy is supported by an authentic classroom example. An additional example of each strategy is provided on the free CD that accompanies the text. These teaching examples clearly identify how to implement the strategy and adapt its use to fit the needs of learners in a primary/elementary and then a middle school/secondary classroom. Margin features titled Focus on English Learners explain how to create learning tools to make the strategy fit the needs of English language learners.
