Sunday Is for the Sun, Monday Is for the Moon: Teaching Reading, One Teacher and Thirty Children at a Time

Sunday Is for the Sun, Monday Is for the Moon: Teaching Reading, One Teacher and Thirty Children at a Time is a handbook that shows how Reading Reform Foundation of New York trains public-school teachers right in their classrooms to teach reading, writing, spelling and comprehension effectively. Reading Reform Foundation’s phonetic approach uses multisensory techniques for teaching and for learning. This approach has worked successfully for over thirty years in more than 1,500 classrooms and with over 20,000 children. The program’s strength lies in the twice-a-week visits by Reading Reform Foundation mentors all school-year long. This combination of step-by-step methods and sympathetic professional support should be replicated in every elementary school in the United States.
