The introductory vignette describing best language arts practices is an excellent way to set the stage for the content in the chapter. LA Essentials is essential information for teachers to have in an easy reference format. Diane Bottomley, BallStateUniversity
Tompkins provides lots of practical ideas for teaching, and explains the constructs associated with the reading and writing processes in context of classroom application. The charts, lists, and special features are very helpful in highlighting important content. Janet Young, BrighamYoungUniversity
I like the rich description of theory and its application to instruction. Tompkins does a good job of explaining the theories and of giving readers examples of classroom applications, and the book continues to help readers make these connections in subsequent chapters. Debra Price, SamHoustonStateUniversity
Gail Tompkins I’m a teacher, first and foremost. I began my career as a first-grade teacher in Virginia in the 1970s. I remember one first grader who cried as the first day of school was ending. When I tried to comfort him, he sobbed accusingly, “I came to first grade to learn to read and write and you forgot to teach me.” The next day, I taught that child and his classmates to read and write! We made a small patterned book about one of the stuffed animals in the classroom. I wrote some of the words and the students supplied the others, and I duplicated copies of the book for each child. We practiced reading it until everyone memorized our little book. The children proudly took their books home to read to their parents. I’ve never forgotten that child’s comment and what it taught me: Teachers must understand their students and meet their expectations.
My first few years of teaching left me with more questions than answers, and I wanted to become a more effective teacher so I started taking graduate courses. In time I earned a master’s degree and then a doctorate in Reading/Language Arts, both from Virginia Tech. Through my graduate studies, I learned a lot of answers, but more importantly, I learned to keep on asking questions.
Then I began teaching at the university level. First I taught at Miami University in Ohio, then at the University of Oklahoma, and finally at California State University, Fresno. I’ve taught preservice teachers and practicing teachers working on master’s degrees, and I’ve directed doctoral dissertations. I’ve received awards for my teaching, including the Provost’s Award for Excellence in Teaching at California State University, Fresno, and I was inducted into the California Reading Association’s Reading Hall of Fame. Throughout the years, my students have taught me as much as I taught them. I’m grateful to all of them for what I’ve learned.
I’ve been writing college textbooks for more than 20 years, and I think of the books I write as teaching, too. I’ll be teaching you as you read this text. As I write a book, I try to anticipate the questions you might ask and provide that information. I also include students’ samples so you can see concepts that I’m explaining, and I include lists of trade books that you can refer to as you work with students.
When I’m not teaching, I like to make quilts, and piecing together a quilt is a lot like planning effective language arts instruction. Instead of using pieces of cloth, teachers use the patterns of practice and other instructional procedures described in this text to design instruction for the diverse students in today’s classrooms. That’s why I like to use quilts on the cover of Language Arts. I want to thank quilter Cher Cartwright and illustrator Linda Bronson for their superb artistic contributions. You’ll see their art on the cover and inside this book.
