Reading and Language Arts Worksheets Don′t Grow Dendrites

_Brain-based strategies turn reluctant readers into motivated and engaged learners!
_

Experts say that when students engage in learning, comprehension is more likely to occur. Building on Marcia Tate’s 20 successful "dendrite-growing" teaching strategies, Reading and Language Arts Worksheets Don’t Grow Dendrites, based on the very latest research, contains more than 200 activities for delivering brain-based literacy instruction.

Now in a new, reader-friendly format and consistent with the Common Core State Standards, this classroom companion is dedicated to improving the way students learn to read and read to learn. You’ll discover hands-on techniques grouped by grade level and standard to help teach reading in relevant ways. Activities cover essential categories of literacy and language arts instruction, including

• Phonemic and phonological awareness
• Fluency and vocabulary instruction
• Text comprehension
• Writing
• Speaking and listening
• Language
• Cross-curricular instruction
• Reading literacture and information text

When teachers understand how to plan and execute great lessons and when students are involved and engaged, true learning occurs.  Start today!
