Resumen del Editor

Dr. Julia B. Lindsey’s evidence-based routines help young listeners decode words efficiently so they can spend more energy on comprehending—and enjoying—what they read!

You’ll find:

1. Need-to-know essentials of how kids learn to read.

2. Principles of high-quality foundational skills instruction.

3. Teacher-approved instructional “swaps” to improve early reading instruction.

Dr. Lindsey addresses content learning, culturally responsive practices, and the importance of engaging readers from the start. She uses her impeccable body of research to create a powerful translational work interpreting reading science. She employs a scaffolded approach to teaching foundational skills, starting with decoding and oral language, moving through phonemic awareness and sound-spelling knowledge, and ending with fluency. Of particular value is the focus on bridging to practice. Activities and lessons presented here can be used immediately in the classroom. The depth of research backing this audiobook cannot be overstated.

Reading Above the Fray is deftly narrated by award-winning voiceover artist and narrator Kim Handysides.

Great practical ideas

A good book to get understanding of the why’s behind some issues in reading with good ideas to implement to support in the classroom.

Hard book to listen too

With all of the research citations read aloud it became hard to listen to. There was so much basics building and definitions that if you gave any background at all, you’ll want to skip around- was very tricky out loud. I never ever say this- but I wish I had read the print version, and not audio version of this book
