Practical, effective, evidence-based reading interventions that change students' lives Essentials of Understanding and Assessing Reading Difficulties is a practical, accessible, in-depth guide to reading assessment and intervention. It provides a detailed discussion of the nature and causes of reading difficulties, which will help develop the knowledge and confidence needed to accurately assess why a student is struggling. Readers will learn a framework for organizing testing results from current assessment batteries such as the WJ-IV, KTEA-3, and CTOPP-2. Case studies illustrate each of the concepts covered. A thorough discussion is provided on the assessment of phonics skills, phonological awareness, word recognition, reading fluency, and reading comprehension. Formatted for easy reading as well as quick reference, the text includes bullet points, icons, callout boxes, and other design elements to call attention to important information. Although a substantial amount of research has shown that most reading difficulties can be prevented or corrected, standard reading remediation efforts have proven largely ineffective. School psychologists are routinely called upon to evaluate students with reading difficulties and to make recommendations to address such difficulties. This book provides an overview of the best assessment and intervention techniques, backed by the most current research findings. Bridge the gap between research and practice Accurately assess the reason(s) why a student struggles in reading Improve reading skills using the most highly effective evidence-based techniques Reading may well be the most important thing students are taught during their school careers. It is a skill they will use every day of their lives; one that will dictate, in part, later life success. Struggling students need help now, and Essentials of Understanding and Assessing Reading Difficulties shows how to get these students on track.

Knowledge is Power! A knowledgeable person cannot be easily deceived. Someone who doesn't read wallows in ignorance and is like a time bomb waiting to explode. Someone once said, "Your position in five years from now will be determined by two things: first, the books you read; and second, the friends you keep." There are three categories of people in life where reading is concerned: Those who don't read, those who buy books but don't read it, and those who buy and read the book. If I may ask: to which category do you belong? A man who can read but chooses not to read, is not better than a man who cannot read. The world belongs to those who "know".In this book, you will learn: -How to spark a renewed passion for reading-The importance of reading-The dangers of not reading-How to become a solution provider by knowledge-How to set up a personal development library-How to become an "A" Student at school-How to become a better leader in both the private and public sectors.-How to become an excellent teacher in teaching your students-How to become a star employee at work through knowledge acquisition-How to become a better parent in aiding your child's education-Ways to revive the reading culture in our society "The book is a treasure.
