Reading Now engages students through thematic content to connect meaning with reading skill development and a richly illustrated design that delivers key concepts in an inviting way.
Good Great tool for introductory high school or freshmen college refresher on the basics. Sort of a textbook and workbook in one.. Amazing Resource! happyreader I love this book! Lots of good readings from Bill Bryson to Richard Rodriquez to useful articles about money and health. I like the article by columnist Slim Randles about coffee. College students of all ages and backgrounds will find something to relate to in
I have seen that using these types of materials have a greater impact on my students’ ability to do well in class when current events are used rather than old material from textbooks. -Melanie Ward, Tyler Junior College The themes are appealing and seem applicable to real-world reading that a college student is required to complete. --Linda Huber Mininger, Harrisburg Area Community College The holistic and specific-skills approach is totally unique. I think it is a more natural way to learn reading skills which engages the brain in problem solving. --Sandra Jones, Community College of Baltimore CountyThe readings are current and very interesting and provocative.
