Literacy for Learning

A Handbook of Content-Area and Disciplinary Literacy Practices for Middle and High School Teachers

Gregory Berry,

About this book

Literacy proficiency became the responsibility of every middle and high school teacher as each state adopted, or revised and adopted, The Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts &Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects. Its intention was immediately misunderstood, and most content area teachers responded with "I did not go to college to be a reading and writing teacher!" The result? ELA teachers became the sole source of reading and writing instruction.
Literacy for Learning: A Handbook of Content-Area and Disciplinary Literacy Practices for Middle and High School Teachers, 2nd edition, enables readers to discover how content area teachers are now using a literacy model of instruction to maximize learning in every discipline and meet the Reading Informational Text Standards of the Common Core. As a handbook, this book motivates middle and high school teachers to include daily, independent reading and writing as literacy instructional practices for teaching disciplinary content through a rigorous curriculum and with complex texts. The updates to this 2nd edition include more recent scholarship, as well as a new digital component featuring resources and strategies.
