In the book, the author,
Matthew Glavach, Ph.D., presents the following information.
How
he designed the adult like program for reading intervention that students
liked. He no longer heard students comments about not wanting to do
"this baby work".
How he had students at
different reading levels all working in the same instructional program on
the same lesson. Student reading levels ranged from two to five years
below expected grade levels.
How he developed reading
interest and motivation with students who were defeated and overwhelmed by
the high school curriculum. A large number of the students were second
language learners.
How
he used reading research, music research (although the program contained no
music), and new findings in brain research in a new approach to
short-circuit reading intervention and to connect students to core
textbooks.
