Diagnosis and Correction of Reading Problems
Guilford Press | Darrell Morris | December 2007
ISBN 13: 9781593856168
In this highly informative text, Darrell Morris offers detailed, practical guidance based on decades of hands-on experience as a reading clinician and educator. He demonstrates how to conduct a comprehensive diagnostic assessment; interpret reading scores; and provide individualized instruction that takes each student’s specific strengths and weaknesses into account. Case studies bring to life the book’s one-to-one strategies for struggling beginning readers, older remedial readers (second- to sixth-grade reading levels), and those with severe reading disabilities. Small-group and whole-class applications are discussed, and a special chapter describes an exemplary teacher training approach. Helpful appendices feature ready-to-use assessment tools, book lists and other reproducibles.

“Direct, engaging thorough…. The detailed case studies of interrelated reading, writing and word study lessons based on careful assessment are wonderful. Recommendations for developing an effective diagnostic/correction course or teaching practicum are also provided. I can’t wait to use this book!”—Jo Worthy, PhD, University of Texas at Austin
