This widely used teacher resource and course text--now significantly revised with 75% new content--provides a flexible approach to fostering high-level understanding of a wide variety of informational sources in grades 3–8.

Now in a convenient large-size format, the second edition is packed with practical features, including a detailed study guide and links to recommended online videos.

The companion website allows readers to download and print a reproducible lesson planning template and quick-reference tools, as well as additional resources referenced in the book.
