Book Description

For ten years and in two classic books, Irene Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell have described how to analyze the characteristics of texts and select just-right books to use for guided reading instruction. Now, for the first time, all of their thinking and research has been updated and brought together into Leveled Books, K-8 to form the ultimate guide to choosing and using books from kindergarten through middle school. Fountas and Pinnell take you through every aspect of leveled books, describing how to select and use them for different purposes in your literacy program and offering prototype descriptions of fiction and nonfiction books at each level. They share advice on: the role of leveled books in reading instruction, analyzing the characteristics of fiction and nonfiction texts, using benchmark books to assess instructional levels for guided reading, selecting books for both guided and independent reading, organizing high-quality classroom libraries, acquiring books and writing proposals to fund classroom-library purchases, creating a school book room. In addition, Fountas and Pinnell explain the leveling process in detail so that you can tentatively level any appropriate book that you want to use in your instruction. Best of all, Leveled Books, K-8 is one half of a new duo of resources that will change how you look at leveled books. Its companion-www.FountasandPinnellLeveledBooks.com-is a searchable and frequently updated website that includes more than 18,000 titles. With Leveled Books, K-8 you'll know how and why to choose books for your readers, and with www.FountasandPinnellLeveledBooks.com, you'll have the ideal tool at your fingertips for finding appropriate books for guided reading.

Book Description

Someone had to write it...and that's why we did. THE Book on . . . Business from A to Z; The 260 Most Important Answers You Need to Know is the result of trying to constantly answer clients' questions across a vast range of business topics. After frequent discussions about some of our most challenging engagements, the coauthors realized that we had one thing in common: Clients who were regularly asking questions about many areas beyond our individual areas of expertise. We did our individual best to answer them and/or put the clients in touch with other experts who could. However, we wanted to be able to go beyond this and to provide an ongoing resource for those questions that arise when we are not in front of our clients. We wanted to make a lasting resource for our past, present and future clients. The result is THE Book on . . . Business from A to Z; The 260 Most Important Answers You Need to Know. This book covers 26 of the most important business topics in the world today. Although each chapter is worthy of a complete book of its own, we have condensed each down to the 10 most frequently asked questions and their answers.
