Ivey, Gay
Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, v42 n5 p372-81 Feb 1999
Shares four working generalizations on what it takes for middle school students with persistent reading difficulties to become successful readers: (1) access to materials that span the gamut of interests and difficulty levels; (2) opportunities to share reading experiences with teachers and classmates; (3) real purposes for reading; and (4) recognition that they can become good readers.
