What is Teaching the Dimensions of Literacy about?

Teaching the Dimensions of Literacy provides the conceptual knowledge to support teachers' instructional decisions in the reading/literacy classroom and features a multitude of instructional strategy lessons for classroom use with both monolingual and bilingual students. Its premise is that literacy comprises four dimensions--linguistic, cognitive, sociocultural, and developmental. In the debate over literacy instruction, and in many reading/literacy methods texts, one dimension tends to be privileged and the others ignored. In this text, the teaching and learning of all four dimensions of literacy are acknowledged and addressed. The four dimensions provide a coherent conceptual framework within which instructional strategy lessons are identified, synthesized, organized, and presented--demonstrating how the complex nature of literacy can be addressed within a classroom setting. *Part I introduces the conceptual framework for teaching and learning the dimensions of literacy. These chapters reflect the authors' belief that literacy instruction involves more than passively following and implementing a series of recipes, but rather, is a conscious, reflective, and constructive process
