Teaching Reading : From Process to Practice

This text provides a whole language approach to teaching reading to elementary school students.

It addresses the challenge of understanding the philosophies of various reading theories, choosing the right methods, and making the best use of available resources.

Instead of surrounding the student with books and focusing on reading activities, this book gives a bottom-up approach.

The text incorporates phonetics, basal texts, sight, and other methods of teaching reading, plus actual literature for the children to read.
