How do we train middle grade students to be skilled readers and writers? How do we incorporate skills into a content-rich curriculum? How do we provide instruction in those critical “need-to-know” skills areas but avoid a “drill and kill” mentality? The middle grades are critical years for skills building. What students do not master in these middle years may become lifetime weaknesses. Need to Know is a must “how to” course for teachers of English and any other discipline that requires extensive reading and writing. It contains easy-to-use student sheets, sample scripted lessons, and comprehensive explanations of all concepts and teaching tools.

It is a succinct but accessible course in teaching of analysis to: pre-readers and emergent readers, elementary school children, middle school students, special education students, and second language (ESL) learners. Among the skills highlighted are: formulating and answering questions, close textual analysis, organization in preparation for writing, vocabulary building, reading for main idea and supporting detail sequencing, reading for inference and drawing conclusions, charting paragraphs and essays, and listening and note taking. The techniques are applicable not only to picture books but also to children’s and young adult literature. All approaches to instruction have been utilized successfully in the classroom for 45 years.
