Richard; Ouellette, Gene P., ISBN 1625312733, ISBN-13 9781625312730, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Gentry, an educational consultant, author, and former elementary teacher, professor, and director of a university reading center, and Ouellette, a professor of psychology and researcher in reading, spelling, and the connections between oral and written language, explain the science behind learning to read and the brain development that supports it, detailing reading theory, research, and neurological reading circuitry in relation to classroom instruction. They show teachers how to rethink reading instruction and word study as a more effective way to build dictionaries in the brain where students can store and automatically access sounds, spellings, and meanings for correctly spelled words, connecting to other reading circuitry in the brain for meaning and understanding, and resulting in more proficient reading and writing. They outline a spell-to-read approach for teaching reading that is based on developmental reading theory, research, and brain study and presenting words aurally first and then asking students to analyze the sounds they hear and spell the word how they hear it. They describe the scientific study of reading and how it can inform teaching, what is known about how reading works in the brain, current teaching practices and what works and what doesn't, the importance of being aware of developmental phases in teaching reading and spelling, the spell-to read instructional method in kindergarten and first grade, building brain-based representations of words in second through sixth grade, and understanding and supporting children with dyslexia in terms of reading science.
