Description
Summary:When we build on children's key strengths and immerse them in an intellectually invigorating, emotionally nurturing, literature-rich community, we grow "super readers," avid readers who consume texts with passion, understanding and a critical eye. Organized around the seven strengths inherent in super readers (belonging, curiosity, friendship, kindness, confidence, courage and hope), this powerful resource helps children develop reading, writing, speaking and listening skills, learn comprehension strategies, build a robust vocabulary, deepen analytical prowess and an ability to talk and write about text, develop empathy, a strong identity as a reader and an expanded understanding of the world. Featuring stirring reading and writing lessons, robust assessment tools, ready-to-share Family Guides, and embedded videos that illuminate the seven strengths and more, Every Child a Super Reader shows teachers, parents, caregivers and out-of-school providers why reading is the ultimate super power, opening a world of possible for every student.
