O knihe

Catch a falling reader and put this child in your pocket, never let even one get away! That's easier said, than done! Imagine the power behind the ability to catch a falling reader before signs of frustration, poor habits, and low self-esteem take root and grow. That power is at the heart of this book. This book was designed as a daily guide to help those who are in positions of catching and lifting falling readers. It was written for the purpose of confirming, instructing, supporting, and inspiring those who live or work with struggling readers. What can this book do for those who seek to catch falling readers?

1. Offer ideas in a format that is easy to read and understand. This is not a textbook. Ideas and suggestions have been gathered from actual experiences in the field.

2. Create a conscious awareness of common behaviors in young readers that often become 'habits.'

3. Recommend research-based strategies and methods for preventing falling readers from continuing to fall.

4. Provide opportunities for the reader to confirm, reflect, and enhance his/her current knowledge of how to help falling readers.

Since time to 'read and think' in today's hurried world, here is what I recommend for maximizing the usefulness of this book:

1. Hold the book with both hands and close your eyes.

2. Now let your thumbs flip through the pages. When you're ready, stop!

3. Open to the pages your thumbs land on.

4. Now read and think about how to catch a falling reader.

5. If you land on a page that you've already read, you may want to reread it or simply move your thumbs to a different page. Remember, however, that repeated reading does build greater understandings!

6. Important: Try to find time that day to share what you've read with someone. When we discuss what we've learned and teach someone else, then we actually learn it
