THE SCIENCE OF READING IN PRACTICE
JULIA B. LINDSEY Foreword by Nell K. Duke
“ Reading Above the Fray speaks to something near and dear to my heart—the power of early literacy to lead to lifelong learning and immeasurable opportunities. With clarity and precision, Dr. Lindsey cuts through the distracting noise around reading instruction. Her book should be required reading in preservice and inservice programs. With it, we can chart a course forward to literacy for all. ” — SHARIF EL-MEKKI, Chief Executive Officer, Center for Black Educator Development “ One of the best books I have read on decoding and phonics. With passion for teaching, Dr. Lindsey interprets reading science in ways that are directly transferable to the classroom. Her book is chocked full of research-backed techniques, activities, and strategies— a veritable ‘go-to’ resource. This is exactly the kind of translational work the field needs! ” —HEIDI ANNE MESMER, Professor of Literacy Education, Virginia Tech “ In Reading Above the Fray , Julia masterfully connects the deep research base on how kids learn to read to what teachers can do tomorrow in their classrooms. What I love even more about the book is her focus on the joy of helping students develop the tools they need to achieve reading success. There is magic in learning to read, and Julia shows us exactly how to create it. ” —SUSANNE NOBLES, Chief Academic Officer, ReadWorks Julia Lindsey’s evidence-backed routines help young readers decode words efficiently so they can spend more energy on comprehending—and enjoying—what they read! You’ll find: • need-to-know essentials of how kids learn to read. • principles of high-quality foundational skills instruction. • teacher-approved instructional “swaps” to improve practice tomorrow. Lindsey addresses content learning, culturally responsive instruction, and the importance of engaging readers from the start.
