COMMENTARIES ON FOR-PD

• “After reading the lesson not only have I gained much more insight into this important aspect of reading, but also I have found a great number of ideas to implement in my classroom. As a math teacher I understand how even the most brilliant math student will be hindered by their reading skills when trying to succeed in higher-level math classes.” Mathematics Teacher, FOR-PD Participant

• “I understand the key characteristics of effective and striving readers. I thought it was interesting that students from impoverished backgrounds and English-language learners need to build the basic oral vocabulary of the most frequent English words. Strategies to help students relate new words to their background experience as well as other words are desirable.” Science Teacher, FOR-PD Participant
