There's Research for That: Your K-5 Literacy Instruction Questions Answered
Last updated 2025/08/22
Description
This thoroughly researched book, with 20 chapters answering pressing literacy instruction questions, is ideal for K-5 classroom teachers, as well as interventionists, coaches and consultants. Each chapter follows a predictable, helpful format: Discussion from the Classroom, Background and Assumptions, Research Studies That Inform the Question, Research Findings, and (perhaps most importantly) So What? Actions for the Classroom. The book can be read cover-to-cover, or an educator can quickly navigate to the question they need answered.
Curriculum Connection
The book is divided into two parts, Part 1: Foundational Skills That Support Word Recognition and Part 2: Language and Other Skills That Support Comprehension. Overall, the book supports strands B and C of the 2023 Ontario Language Curriculum.
