Research shows that collaboration between classroom teachers and teacher-librarians improves overall effectiveness in increasing students' reading comprehension. Drawing on cutting edge research in instructional strategies, Moreillon, a veteran school library media specialist, offers a clear, rigorous roadmap to the task of teaching reading comprehension in a proven collaborative process. Packed with practical applications, this expert guide: encourages collaboration with a flexible design and delivery framework; strengthens partnering techniques to improve reading comprehension; addresses three levels of literacy development; identifies seven key strategies that students use to read for meaning; connects with research-driven teaching practices that incorporate library programs; and increases reading scores and lowers the student-teacher ratios using proven collaborative approaches.
