There are a variety of suggested texts as well as identified text exemplars that can easily be used with the strategies and activities. Some additional key features of this book include:
  • Each instructional strategy is described in detail and includes lists of activities that would complement the strategy.
  • A list of standards and strands is given for each grade level.
  • Chapters are designed to focus on specific strands and contain lists of detailed activities for the standards within the strand.
  • Many activities address multiple standards within the activity.
  • Each activity contains focus standards and many contain suggested works.
  • Standards citations are listed at the end of each activity.
  • Many standards are addressed more than once throughout the strands.
