The Language Arts

A note to future teacher … from the author, Ronald Cramer – “This text presents an array of strategies, models, research, and well-established best practices for teaching reading, writing, listening, talking, and thinking. The research, ideas, and information presented in this text will inform, and I hope inspire, pre-service teachers as they grapple with the complexities and challenges of learning to teach the language arts. Experienced teachers know a great deal about teaching the language arts, yet the day-to-day realities of teaching often interfere with their best intentions and efforts. This text speaks to the needs of teachers as they confront the challenges of teaching in all circumstances. It is my hope that this text will have a beneficial influence on those who are just beginning the journey a a teacher as well as those who are experienced teachers.”
