Literacy for Learning: A Handbook of Content-Area and Disciplinary Literacy Practices for Middle and High School Teachers, 2nd edition, enables readers to discover how content area teachers are now using a literacy model of instruction to maximize learning in every discipline and meet the Reading Informational Text Standards of the Common Core. As a handbook, this book motivates middle and high school teachers to include daily, independent reading and writing as literacy instructional practices for teaching disciplinary content through a rigorous curriculum and with complex texts. The updates to this 2nd edition include more recent scholarship, as well as a new digital component featuring resources and strategies.
After a career of teaching reading and writing to students of all ages, Charlene K. Aldrich combined her education and her classroom experiences with Dr. Berry’s first edition of Literacy for Learning to create a handbook for developing literacy-rich instruction in every middle and high school discipline.
