Current Research-Based Reading Documents
For many classroom teachers, access to current research-based practices has proven difficult since many have limited funds available to subscribe to reading research journals and limited time or resources available to locate the most current research documents about effective reading practices. So, I've decided to dedicate the next three months to a series about Reading Research and Best Practices so that readers may use this summer to brush up on these topics and be best prepared to deal with them when students return to their classrooms in the fall. It is my hope that this series will provide easy access to many current sources of scientifically-based reading research, as well as a bit about the history and current politics associated with reading instruction and the ongoing Reading Wars. This month, I'll highlight important research-based reading documents published in the past four years and point you in directions to learn more about specific reading reports.
