Grades 5–8 Scaffolding Complex Texts Mitchell Brookins

This book challenges the idea that using simple texts to teach students reading below grade level is the best approach. It argues that although authentic complex texts are more demanding, reading them fosters critical thinking, vocabulary growth, and a deeper understanding of the world. Literacy expert Mitchell Brookins offers a framework for supporting students in Grades 5–8 as they engage with complex texts, guiding them through syntax and text features, while building their fluency, vocabulary, and writing skills. 160 pages.
