This revised edition builds upon the latest neuroscientific knowledge and instructional strategies, providing a clear explanation of executive skills such as planning, organization, and cognitive flexibility in relation to reading comprehension. Detailed examples illustrate how these skills are deployed by strong comprehenders and offer practical guidance on tailoring instruction for struggling students. The accompanying website features reproducible forms and supplemental resources to support teaching and assessment, including card sorts to teach and assess cognitive flexibility. This updated edition includes new information on word recognition, the development of the brain's reading network, and expanded emphasis on oral language comprehension, making it an invaluable resource for educators looking to enhance their students' reading skills.
