The new Specific Skills for Reading Teacher's Manual supports the Specific Skills for Reading program. This program was designed to develop nine crucial reading skills: Identifying Cause and Effect, Comparing and Contrasting, Drawing Conclusions, Identifying Fact and Opinion, Finding Details, Getting the Main Idea, Making Inferences, Sequencing and Phonics. Each skill is developed through a series of books that spans ten levels (Picture, Prep, A-H) starting with those who have yet to acquire basic sight vocabulary. TheTeacher's Manual includes instruction on a variety of teaching methods including Placement, Group/Individualized Approach and Book Use. Reproducible Blackline Masters and a reduced version of the Class Record Sheet are also included.
