The book is organized around five reading strategies or reading powers Connect, Question, Visualize, Infer, and Transform. Each chapter includes:





  • a song or chant to use in the classroom for each power;


  • suggestions for introducing each reading power;


  • sequential lessons that incorporate teacher modeling, guided practice, and independent reading;


  • ready-to-copy pages that support the sequential lessons;





The book uses authentic children's literature and includes ideas for modeling demonstrations, encouraging practice, and nurturing independent reading. Extensive lists of children's books, organized around grades and reading power, with suggestions for assembling classroom book collections, are an important part of this practical book.
