Teaching Through Text: Reading and Writing in the Content Areas

Bringing all the research up-to-date, this Fourth Edition of Teaching Through Text provides a broad range of techniques to enhance students' literacy development and learning across the curriculum. Authored by two of the most respected literacy researchers, Teaching Through Text focuses on describing, illustrating, and applying both teacher-directed and student-centered strategies for content area literacy in middle and secondary grades. This balanced approach of how student-centered and teacher-centered strategies are implemented in the classroom distinguishes this text by attending to students' different learning needs. Student-centered strategies are illustrated through graphic organizers, concept bridges, and applicable exercises. Taking a unique stance, McKenna and Robinson rethink the way content literacy is taught by describing it in the context of multiple literacies.
