Burke has published previously on teaching English, reading, and grant writing. Here he offers 100 techniques for teaching reading, based on his experiences as a high school English teacher, and using input from his students. For teachers, Burke provides techniques for establishing a reading culture, teaching and supporting students, evaluating one's own teaching, and evaluating students. For students, he provides techniques for reading a variety of texts for different purposes, using various reading strategies, developing reading capacity, and evaluating and monitoring understanding, performance, and progress. The text for each technique has been kept purposely short (2-6 pages) for easy access. The book contains many reproducible forms; additional forms, materials and ideas are available at the author's website. For teachers and teacher-trainers. Annotation c.
