Getting Ahead : Fundamentals of College Reading Paperback
by Robert Rosenthal, Gerald Audesirk, Bruce Byers, JoAnn Yaworski
Paperback
Description
Getting Ahead is the first (6th-9th grade) book in a new two-book reading series.
This text covers the foundations of basic reading comprehension, including improvement and practice of study, vocabulary, sentence building, and critical thinking skills.
Its basic tenet is "Every students starts out with an A." The intention is to build students' motivation-about themselves, their life situation, and their academic situation-in order to excel ("get ahead") in both their academic and professional careers.
Getting Ahead discusses the basic skills and strategies required for the simple comprehension of a written piece, coupled with an introduction to critical thinking and reading.
Greater attention is given to building vocabulary skills and study strategies.
