| Publisher Description: Despite recent progress in reading achievement among primary-grade children, many are not moving beyond basic decoding to fluency and comprehension as they go on to higher grades. RAND evaluated the impact of reading coaches--master teachers who offer ongoing on-site instructional support for teachers--on teaching practices and student outcomes in Florida middle schools. |
