Reviews

What a terrific resource! Jessica Bennett's text will enrich educators' understanding of the Common Core State Standards and provide a road map for designing lessons that foster literacy. The theory and instruction in this book will help educators to teach students to succeed not only with the standards, but in life beyond the classroom. --Colleen Ruggieri, a Martha Holden Jennings Master Teacher of Ohio and Assistant Professor of English at Ohio University Thanks, Jessica! As a science teacher, I truly appreciate this book. I enjoyed reading it and I am especially grateful for all the planning sheets. This has encouraged me and has simplified implementing more Common Core strategies into my lesson plans, as I am certain it will others in our profession. --Melanie J. Retterer, National Board Certified Teacher, 8th Grade Science
