Reading Diagnosis for Teachers by Rebecca Barr

Reading Diagnosis for Teachers: An Instructional Approach, Sixth Edition, has what reading educators need to assess students’ reading and writing abilities and to plan appropriate instruction accordingly. Well-known author/educators Rebecca Barr, Camille L. Z. Blachowicz, Ann Bates, Claudia Katz, and Barbara Kaufman combine an unrivaled wealth of actual case studies with sound theoretical foundation; solid research; and a developmental, constructivist perspective of literacy to prepare reading practitioners to connect diagnosis with instructional planning.
Carol DWickstrom, University of North Texas: “It looks at a wide range of readers and writers, is grounded in theory but does not over tax the reader with so much theory that it becomes impossible to negotiate so that it remains engaging.”   Lynn Saffer Domino, Florida Atlantic University: “Most chapters are easily read and by asking the reader to reflect, it gives them insightful skills into the reading process.”   Janet Towell, Florida Atlantic University: “It’s comprehensive (reading skills and strategies) and there are some good examples of case studies.”
