Review: I've learned a great deal from Lemov's books and this one is no ...
Review: Must-have for Core Knowledge middle school teachers! - I purchased Reading Reconsidered in April and began using some of the strategies right away. Especially helpful to me were the sections on close reading, layered reading and creating text-dependent questions. I teach at a Core Knowledge school- Shakespeare, Poe, Dickens, Dickinson, and Twain are included in the 6th-8th canon- and, my goal has always been to use the original texts, not any adaptations. Reading Reconsidered gave me specifics on how to better use challenging texts, in their original language, with my students. In addition to gaining new insight, Reading Reconsidered validated the vocabulary strategies that I currently use and gave a better grasp of why they work, while giving me some new tools also, specifically how to tackle vocabulary words are most important and needing in-depth study versus those which can be quickly defined before returning to the text. As I purchased the book in spring, there are obviously strategies I have yet to try out. This summer, I have delved into the sections on "writing for reading" and tweaked my formative and summative assessments in lit. units I already use- The Prince and the Pauper, Huck Finn, Julius Caesar and Call of the Wild. I've created more text-dependent writing opportunities for these units. And I've gained insight into how to hold kids accountable for revising their writing. I am looking forward to August and will hit the ground running with my improved arsenal!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Welcome Addition
*by M***K on May 4, 2024*

There were good pages throughout. There are not many books on improving literacy for middle school and high school at higher levels. Most books on literacy discuss it in regards to basic reading/writing. Therefore, this book is a welcome addition to the literary literature and for literacy teachers who seek to improve literacy rates at the higher levels.
