How can educators best encourage male students to read, and what new technologies and techniques can serve this objective? The Common Core Approach to Building Literacy in Boys is an essential resource and reference for teachers, librarians, and parents seeking to encourage reading in boys from preschool to 12th grade.Providing a wide array of useful, up-to-date information that emphasizes the English Language Arts Common Core Standards, the bibliographies and descriptions of effective strategies in this book will enable you to boost reading interest and performance in boys. The chapters cover 16 different topics of interest to boys, all accompanied by a complete bibliography for each subject area, discussion questions, writing connections, and annotated new and classic nonfiction titles. Information on specific magazines, annotated professional titles, books made into film, websites, and apps that will help you get boys interested in reading is also included.

Recenzii

Authored by the owner of Cognitive Advantage and former elementary teacher for grades K-12, as well as a library media specialist, this work focuses on two areas of need-raising literacy levels in boys in particular, and the Common Core standards that are being implemented in schools across the United States. . . . While the title implies the book is geared toward working with boys, many of the resources and ideas will work schoolwide with children of both genders. School librarians at the elementary, middle, and high school levels will all benefit from this work . . . Public librarians working with children in K-12 will also benefit, as will classroom teachers seeking titles and ideas for integrating literature across the curriculum.
