Reviews / Votes
Maureen McLaughlin's Content Area Reading is extremely well written, is organized in a useful manner, stimulates engagement, and is appropriate for students who want to learn to be skilled readers, talkers, and writers. The activities are captivating and easy for students to do.The text resembles a workbook or handbook with many different procedures and selections. It is creative and compelling for students and teachers alike. -- Dr. Rosalind Horowitz, The University of Texas at San Antonio
Content Area Reading is a good text that stresses the importance of professional development and how a teacher learns and grows. -- Joy L. M. Brown, University of North Alabama
I would recommend this text, especially for a graduate, content area reading course. It covers content area reading in grades 6-12 very well. I love the way McLaughlin lays out strategies and takes the reader through each, step-by-step. I selected this text over other, more popular ones because of how it's organized and the way it incorporates information about multiple literacies and technology. -- Gwyn W. Senokossoff, Florida International University
