It changes the way we think, the way we see the world, the way we process information and dream new thoughts. It allows us to discover more about ourselves and the world around us so that we might become better versions of ourselves, so we might fully participate in our communities and our nation, so that we might flourish intellectually, emotionally, creatively, and socially as passionate and compassionate beings.\n\nAnd when we don’t read, when kids can’t read, all that is gone. We lose that ability to learn in this transformative way. We run the risk of being manipulated by others. We are diminished. And in that moment of being less, all around us might suffer, too. Our understanding of complex issues then becomes dependent on what someone else tells us. When kids can’t read the result is far worse than lowered test scores. The result is an illiterate life.\n\nThis new and updated second edition recognizes that helping kids who struggle with reading means knowing how to help kids with: Comprehension: literal and inferential meaning Word Work: phonics, fluency, spelling, and vocabulary Engagement: required and independent reading, relevance, and motivation\nWhen Kids Can’t Read recounts my journey with one student who changed the course of my professional career, and it is your guidebook for your own journey with your students as you discover What Teachers Can Do.\n\n―Kylene Beers\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0325144591\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0325144591.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Beers, Kylene\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
