Laine, Chester H.; Bullock, Terry L.; Ford, Karen L.
Educational Research Quarterly, v21 n3 p3-19 Mar 1998

About 16% of teacher time was spent in active reading instruction and about 33% in oblique reading instruction. Implications for increasing reading instruction in these classes are discussed. (SLD)
