By Louisa Cook Moats

Subjects: Language arts (Elementary), English language, Study and teaching (Elementary), Orthography and spelling

Description: "The first module in the LETRS series explores the reasons why many students have reading difficulties and explains how children learn to read. Case studies illustrate the progression of reading development; the influences of biological, genetic, cognitive, environmental, and instructional factors in learning to read; and the components of effective reading instruction. A "four-part processing system" model is explored in detail."--Page 4 of cover.
