Thinking Reading and Writing details specific structured methods for improving quality and effectiveness in parent, peer and volunteer tutoring. The methods cover reading, thinking, writing and spelling, and are based on decades of work in hundreds of schools with thousands of children, and a mass of research evidence. These practical methods are inexpensive to use, require no special materials or complex technology, are flexible and durable in a wide range of settings, and are compatible with professional instruction of almost any type. Full descriptions of the methods are coupled with detailed advice about successful organization, brief summaries of the relevant research findings, and guidance on local evaluation. The book is linked with a web site containing over fifty free resource materials to help with implementing projects and with staff development presentations, which can be adapted and copied for use by readers (the Thinking Reading Writing or TRW web site - www.dundee.ac.uk/psychology/TRW).
