It provides 30 practical strategies and activities--such as "Citizen of the Month," "High Five," and "Your Life in Books"--that are ready to implement in the K-6 classroom. Teachers get step-by-step instructions for creating a motivating classroom environment, nurturing children's self-concepts as literacy learners, and fostering appreciation of the value of reading and writing. More than a dozen reproducibles include two helpful assessment tools; the large-size format facilitates photocopying.
