Furthermore, the book delves into the critical elements necessary to make a racing intervention aimed at adolescent struggling readers truly effective. The overarching message of this remarkable book is one of unwavering optimism. The authors passionately demonstrate that the right of every child to learn to read is entirely achievable if schools embrace the best research-driven practices. By implementing these strategies, educators can empower students to unlock their full potential, fostering a brighter future for themselves and generations to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 196g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 147 x 8 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781911382683\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James Murphy,Dianne Murphy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095280578810,"sku":"9781911382683","price":16.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/545eed9bb28c09e121a0499dc7a1afac.jpg?v=1631505032","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/thinking-reading-what-every-secondary-teacher-needs-to-know-about-reading","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
