5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this too if you're buying Improving Adolescent Literacy: Strategies at Work, June 1, 2007
By 
Penny E. Christensen (Pendergrass, GA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: 50 Content Area Strategies for Adolescent Literacy (Merrill / Prentice Hall Teaching Strategies Series) (Spiral-bound)
I think this book is a great additional to a content area teacher's library, but is probably the second Doug Fisher book to read. After reading Improving Adolescent Literacy: Strategies at Work I understand better where and when to use the easily described/pictured strategies and am confident that I can sell the importance of those activities to my middle schoolers.
Strategies are 1-2 pages, some have text only description, but many have diagrams. All strategies are broken down in to before/after/during activiies. I can't wait to incorporate theseinto my classroom!

This resource is essential to an effective classroom! I wish I had this when I first began teaching...my life would have been so much easier! Thank goodness that it is available to all teachers now!

Kudos to the authors!

5.0 out of 5 stars Textbook was a bargain, September 20, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Content Area Strategies for Adolescent Literacy (Merrill / Prentice Hall Teaching Strategies Series) (Spiral-bound)
This textbook was required for a course I am taking in college. It was cheaper on Amazon than I could get at the local bookstore and it arrived in pristine condition in time for the start of classes.
