Relationship between Curriculum Scope and Reading Achievement in Elementary Schools.
Singer, Harry; And Others
Reading Teacher, v37 n7 p608-12 Mar 1984
Reports on a study of the curriculum in six paired elementary schools in Los Angeles. Concludes that, if a school has low scores on inferential, interpretive reading, the cure is probably not to give students more of the basics but to develop their vocabularies and general knowledge by providing broad instruction in the content areas.
