Review Quotes: Review Quotes: "This book speaks to something near and dear to my heart--the power of early literacy to lead to lifelong learning and immeasurable opportunities. With clarity and precision, Dr. Lindsey cuts through the distracting noise around reading instruction. Her book should be required reading in preservice and inservice programs. With it, we can chart a course forward to literacy for all." -- SHARIF EL-MEKKI, Chief Executive Officer, Center for Black Educator Development Review Quotes: "One of the best books I've read on decoding and phonics. With passion for teaching, Dr. Lindsey interprets reading science in ways that are directly transferable to the classroom. Her book is chock full of techniques, activities, and strategies--a veritable 'go-to' resource. This is exactly the kind of translational work the field needs!" -- HEIDI ANNE MESMER, Professor of Literacy Education, Virginia Tech; author of Letter Lessons and First Words: Phonics Foundations That Work Review Quotes: "In Reading Above the Fray, Julia masterfully connects the deep research base on how kids learn to read to what teachers can do tomorrow in their classrooms. What I love even more about the book is her focus on the joy of helping students develop the tools they need to achieve reading success." -- SUSANNE NOBLES, Chief Academic Officer, ReadWorks Review Quotes: "Accessible, timely, and easy to use, this is a book that needed to be written for teachers, literacy coaches, and school administrators looking to develop efficient and effective literacy instruction. Dr. Lindsey simplifies the complexities of foundational skills instruction, synthesizes research by bridging it to practice, and provides routines that can be implemented the very next day. I predict it will become a primary resource that educators return to time and again." -- REBECCA MILES, Early Literacy Consultant and Coach Coordinator, Berrien Regional Educational Service Agency Review Quotes: "If you think a professional book about decoding and foundational skills can't be engaging, think again! Dr. Lindsey artfully combines wit, wisdom, and classroom realism with evidence-based routines that we can implement immediately. Most important, she centers each chapter on children, calling us to value and build upon the strengths, perspectives, and cultural assets they bring. This book is a win for educators and, by extension, the children and families they serve!" -- ANNIE PETROZZELLI SPEAR, Literacy Specialist, Consultant, and Author Review Quotes: "Elementary teachers have been waiting for this one! Dr. Lindsey explains not only the 'why' behind the essential elements of decoding, but also provides explicit guidance and routines to help any teacher swap out ineffective practices for more effective and efficient research-based ones. She makes it easy to align instruction to reading science and teach 'above the fray.'" -- KATHARINE NOONAN, English Language Arts Instructional Coach, District of Columbia Public Schools Publisher Marketing: Julia Lindsey's evidence-backed routines help young readers decode words efficiently so they can spend more energy on comprehending--and enjoying--what they read! You'll find:1. need-to-know essentials of how kids learn to read.2. principles of high-quality foundational skills instruction.3. teacher-approved instructional "swaps" to improve early reading instruction. Lindsey addresses content learning, culturally responsive practices, and the importance of engaging readers from the start. Review Citations:
