Embracing explicit instruction as a path to creating inclusive classrooms for all students is a focus in this latest edition, with Robyn and Kevin Wheldall, and Greg Ashman offering their views. Jennifer Buckingham, Reid Lyon and Tim Shanahan look to the Science of Reading to discuss the ‘how’ and ‘how much’ of reading instruction, while Matt Barnum investigates new laws in the US to embed findings from scientific research into the teaching of reading. And to get kids off to a great start, David Kinnane provides tips and resources on helping students learn the ‘book language’ they will need for success at school.
