"Reading Diagnosis for Teachers: An Instructional Approach, Fifth Edition, consistently helps the reflective practitioner connect diagnosis with instructional planning. Built on a case-study approach to reading diagnosis, this classroom-based text features strong research, a theoretical foundation, and a developmental, constructivist perspective of literacy. It provides many more cases from actual students and classrooms than other diagnostic texts, as well as a strong research and theoretical grounding for practice."--Jacket.
