Teachers in Action-Fantastic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Teachers in Action: The K-5 Chapters from Reading and Writing in Elementary Schools (Paperback)
This is a great book and goes right along with the Four Blocks Literacy Program. It really explains how to implement the program in a sequential manner. After teaching Four Blocks this year I am excited to read this book. It really makes sense and I know will be a big help next year.

This review is from: Teachers in Action: The K-5 Chapters from Reading and Writing in Elementary Schools (Paperback)
What a great idea: to write the story of one imaginary class as it moves from grades K through 5 encountering different (but always reflective and hard working) teachers. It's a practical look at powerful literacy instruction in action. The teachers' "monthly logs" give the reader a peek inside their heads as they plan and evaluate their programs. This is a good read for brand new teachers (they will surely identify with "Miss Nouveau" in second grade!) and all those who strive to improve their instructional practice.
