### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book by Jennifer Serravallo is perfect for anyone who teaches reading
*by J***N on June 25, 2015*

This book by Jennifer Serravallo is perfect for anyone who teaches reading, from classroom teachers to literacy coaches to interventionists, student teachers to tutors. It is packed with explicit, easy-to-follow reading strategies, organized into 13 reading goals. These strategies will help readers develop skills they need to read, comprehend, analyze, and discuss both fiction and non-fiction. Each page contains a teaching point, possible trajectories for strategy instruction, prompts, tips, examples of charts to use, and guidance for which readers will benefit most from the identified strategy. Not a book you will read and leave on your shelf, Serravallo provides teachers with a "cookbook" for their instruction. I found myself thinking of particular students or groups of students as I perused its pages with tabs and highlighter in hand. It filled me with anticipation for the new school year! Depending on the readers you work with, you will find yourself drawn to different reading goals, whether it be reading engagement, fluency, fiction comprehension (plot, setting, characters, theme), nonfiction comprehension (text features, main ideas, details), speaking and listening, writing about reading, vocabulary and figurative language, and more. This isn't a book you have to read from cover to cover; the easy-to-use table of contents invites you to target specific goals and find the strategies that are just-right for your readers. Concise, student-friendly, and purposeful, the teaching points and instruction framework are ready to put into practice immediately. You will keep this book at your fingertips as you move through the year. Once again, Jennifer Serravallo delivers a text that will benefit all who encounter its pages, and I highly recommend this "everything guide" for anyone who teaches reading!
