Noting that early reading achievement is increasingly being named as a top priority in venues ranging from national policy arenas to local schools and school districts, this book consolidates and summarizes research on early reading achievement, making it accessible to parents, teachers, administrators, and others concerned with children's reading success. The six essays in the book represent a joint effort of seven literacy educators who are committed to the improvement of children's literacy skills, and who represent a number of Michigan organizations and institutions that have a long history of successful collaboration. After a preface and introduction, the essays are: (1) "Toward a More Complex View of Balance in the Literacy Curriculum" (P. David Pearson and Taffy E. Raphael); (2) "Every Child a Reader: At Work in a First-Grade Classroom" (Elfrieda H. Hiebert); (3) "Diversity in a Democratic Society: Implications for Literacy Instruction" (Barbara J. Diamond); (4) "School-Family Connections: Why Are They So Difficult To Create?" (Patricia A. Edwards); (5) "A Michigan Early Literacy Parent/Teacher Collaboration" (Deanna Birdyshaw); and (6) "A Balanced Early Literacy Curriculum: An Ecological Perspective" (W. Dorsey Hammond). (Each chapter contains references.) (RS)
