Introducing Meet with the Experts: A No Child Left Behind Teleconference Series
Did you ever wish you had access to experts at the Department
of Education or the educational associations for more guidance
on the new NCLB Act?

The International Reading Association Helps Educators with
the Challenges of Reading First Since the No Child Left

have struggled to understand the mandates of the legislation,
including defining "scientifically based research"
as it relates to Reading First.
Laubach Way to Reading

vowel, letters, regular spellings, teachers. LWR is
a basic reading and writing series developed primarily for adults with little
or no reading ability.
The series provides a systematic development of
basic reading and writing skills.
The lessons progress from the sounds
and regular spellings of basic consonants to those of the short vowels, the long
vowels, and finally to irregular spellings and more difficult reading, writing,
and grammar skills.
A separate series of manuals, the Laubach Way to English,
provides complete instructions for teaching the skills of listening, speaking,
reading, and writing English to the non-English-speaking student.
Beginning

comprehension skills.

our children achieve success.
Laura Bush understands the responsibility
that parents and other adults have to help children develop strong cognitive skills
in the early years so that they are prepared for school.
As a former public
school teacher, Mrs. Bush also knows that the quality of a child's education hinges
on the quality of that child's teachers.
Teaching reading is one of America's
top domestic priorities.

1, an English reading textbook for beginners in both ESL and EFL settings aims
to develop students' top-down and bottom-up reading skills using a wide variety
of prose and non-prose texts.
The Word and Beyond the Word sections are
designed to raise students' vocabulary and grammar awareness.
In both
sections, exercises are presented within the context of each unit's topic to facilitate
students' reading comprehension.
A second drawback is that most of the
materials contained in the text, such as newspaper articles, advertisements, and
pictures, are revised or recreated and so lack authenticity.
For EFL students
who don't have many chances to be exposed to a target culture and language, presenting
real materials is more desirable.

The DC Reads program was first implemented during the 1997-1998 school year (Year
1) as a partnership between the Corporation for National Service, the District
of Columbia Public Schools, Communities in Schools (a non-profit organization)
and six local universities (American, Catholic, George Washington, Howard, and
Trinity), with Georgetown University acting as lead.
Most tutored students
were in second grade and were identified by school staff as having low reading
skills and being most in need of tutoring.
At the beginning of the 1998-1999
school year, most schools used the Book Partners curriculum while a few schools
used the Reading One-to-One curriculum.

data on charts, graphs, tables, and maps.
This is a reading skill many
students, especially remedial students, may not have.
We have ready to
ship 25 Skill Sheets to help you teach students to understand the graphical representation
of data.
TRANSPARENCIES to Accompany Skills Sheets: Each transparency
has the chart/graph/table enlarged to a full-page transparency.

Reading and Adult English Languge Learners: The Role of the First Language

and Stoller (2002) assert, "As we enter a new century, productive and educated
citizens will require even stronger literacy abilities (including both reading
and writing) in increasingly larger numbers of societal settings" (p. 1).
Little research on reading involves adults learning English as a second (or additional)
language.
In a review of the research published from 1980-2000 on reading
development among adult English language learners in the United States (aged 16
years and older), Adams and Burt (2002) found only 47 studies that addressed this
category of learners.

number of books in Challenger Elementary School's collection, and a monstrous
task has been undertaken to determine what reading levels are required for students
to read those books.
Once the program is completed, students will be able
to determine what skill level is needed to read each book.
Kalsnes stated
that most of the school's first graders are at the beginning readers level, which
is why those students have not been included.
For the project, Kalsnes
and others type the title of each book onto the Lexile Framework? for Reading

If a teacher decides that a student's reading
skills have gotten better, the student will be able to check out materials in
the next skill level.
