Description
There are various approaches to teaching reading and numerous instructional strategies that educators can use to engage students in reading and comprehending narrative and informational texts. It is critical for student success for teachers to understand reading standards and to plan effective, standards-based reading instruction that is supportive of all learners. Additionally, teachers must align their assessments to the standards and instruction to provide appropriate opportunities for students to demonstrate mastery.
