Explicit instruction is systematic, direct, engaging, and success
oriented--and has been shown to promote achievement for all students.
This highly practical and accessible resource gives special and general
education teachers the tools to implement explicit instruction in any
grade level or content area. The authors are leading experts who provide
clear guidelines for identifying key concepts, skills, and routines to
teach; designing and delivering effective lessons; and giving students
opportunities to practice and master new material. Sample lesson plans,
lively examples, and reproducible checklists and teacher worksheets
enhance the utility of the volume. Purchasers can also download and
print the reproducible materials for repeated use. Video clips
demonstrating the approach in real classrooms are available at the
authors' website: www.explicitinstruction.org.
