Students particularly like the visuals provided with each strategy." Anitra E. Butler, Prince George's Community College: "This text does an excellent job providing in-service teachers with strategies for literacy instruction. I value the anticipation guides in the beginning of each chapter in order to set the purpose for reading. I also appreciate the informational aides that the text provides as well as the graphic and organizational aides." Dr. Laura C. S. Jones, NazarethCollege: "Fox's text helps my students to develop a more principled understanding of how readers and spellers acquire the word identification strategies they need to be efficient, automatic decoders and encoders."
