Reading Above the Fray: The Art and Science of Teaching Foundational Skills
Author: Julia B. Lindsey
Publisher: Scholastic Professional
ISBN: 9781338828726
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
There is no question that strong foundational skills are essential to successful, joyful reading. In this book, Julia Lindsey focuses on strategies for decoding and chunking words--and ways to teach them efficiently to help children read more deeply during whole-class, small-group and one-on-one instruction. You'll find: 1) need-to-know essentials of how reading works and develops; 2) principles of high-quality foundational skills instruction--including connections to content learning, culturally responsive practices, and engaged reading; and 3) clear-cut, teacher-approved, research-based "instructional swaps" to improve your early reading instruction.

The Book of Why
Author: Judea Pearl
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 0465097618
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
A Turing Award-winning computer scientist and statistician shows how understanding causality has revolutionized science and will revolutionize artificial intelligence "Correlation is not causation." This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohibition on causal talk. Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cut through a century of confusion and established causality -- the study of cause and effect -- on a firm scientific basis. His work explains how we can know easy things, like whether it was rain or a sprinkler that made a sidewalk wet; and how to answer hard questions, like whether a drug cured an illness. Pearl's work enables us to know not just whether one thing causes another: it lets us explore the world that is and the worlds that could have been. It shows us the essence of human thought and key to artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to understand either needs The Book of Why.

Jacob's Ladder Reading Comprehension Program
Author: Joyce VanTassel-Baska
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000494039
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
The Jacob's Ladder Reading Comprehension Program: Nonfiction targets reading comprehension skills in high-ability learners by moving students through an inquiry process from basic understanding to critical analyses of texts using a field-tested method developed by the Center for Gifted Education at William & Mary. Students in grade 4 will be able to comprehend and analyze any nonfiction reading passage after completing the activities in this book. Using skill ladders connected to individual readings related to essays, articles, comparison documents, infographics, and other nonfiction texts, students move from lower order, concrete thinking skills to higher order, critical thinking skills. All of the books, geared to increasing grade levels, include high-interest readings, ladders to increase reading skill development, and easy-to-implement instructions. The ladders include multiple skills necessary for academic success, covering language arts standards such as sequencing, cause and effect, classification, making generalizations, inference, understanding emotion, using and thinking about words, and recognizing themes and concepts. Optional Student Workbook Packs In addition to this teacher's guide, companion student workbooks are available for Science and Math, Social Studies, and Fiction/Nonfiction Comparisons. The student workbooks feature ample room for student responses and notes, make reviewing and providing feedback on student work easier than ever, provide students with an easy-to-use reference to use during discussions, and save time, as there is no need to reproduce student handouts.
