What people say about this book
"I was diagnosed with a reading disorder as a child. This approach could have saved me years of self-doubt and hopelessness. How to Teach Reading and Spelling: Bringing the Science of Reading into the Classroom provides a meticulous and easy to follow method to build a joy of reading and spelling. All children love discovery and thrive on curiosity. Borenstein uses this natural propensity to underpin her relentlessly thorough approach. It’s like learning to read and spell in the same way you’d learn a game on the playground. Bravo Sasha. You moved scientific knowledge into the realm of practical wisdom."
