Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good book for educators
I bought this book for one of my graduate classes on teaching reading in subject areas that don't normally cover it. It's very insightful, and there are a lot of helpful suggestions.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Book for Teachers
We are all reading teachers. We must teach the students to read so they will be able to succeed in all subjects.

This book has strategies for all teachers. The author makes some good points when describing an encounter with an industrial arts teacher who said, "students don't have to read in my class."

This book will show you how to make connections in your subject area to reading.

If you teach a student to read, they can do anything.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - reading teacher
I teach a reading class for strugglers and I found "I Read it But I don't get it" to be a GREAT resource for teaching strugglers. Maybe this book is better for on level readers and their teachers?
