"Written by literacy coach Susan Nations and assistant principal Mellissa Alonso, both of whom earned Teacher of the Year for their respective counties in 2005. More Primary Literacy Centers: Making Reading and Writing STICK! is a no-nonsense guide to building literacy centers in one's classroom, or building upon an established literacy program in order to bring more meaningful reading and writing experiences to youths in grades K-3. Written for novice to veteran literacy center organizers, administrators, and workers, More Primary Literacy Centers covers the five points of the STICK principle -- Strategy Teaching Cycle, Transition Readers from Emergent to Fluent, Interacting as a Learning Community, Conversations about Content, and Keeping the Focus. A wealth of handy teacher resources from sample student interview and center evaluation forms to daily learning logs, "kid-friendly" exercise and response forms, literacy connection planner templates, and more round out this invaluable resource and teaching aid."
