I found this text to be very helpful in designing interesting and meaningful ways for students to enjoy content area reading and developing ways to help them gain better comprehension of the read material. It was organized in an easy to understand format but the authors consistent use of graphic organizers throughout the text did not seem to necessarily help in my understanding of the chapters. I did like, however, many of the techniques they mentioned, especially for vocabulary and writing. The reading roulette and different word puzzles and anticipation guides mentioned are good ideas that are easily incorporated into any lesson in any content area. This text, at the very least, provided a good basis for any teacher to design interesting activities to make reading in the content areas a little less intimidating and a lot more interesting.
