Sparks); (2) How to Build Students' Reading Stamina (Stephen Sawchuk); (3) How One District Moved to a 'Knowledge-Building' Curriculum: 3 Key Takeaways (Sarah Schwartz); (4) Reading Aloud to Students Shouldn't Get Lost in Shift to 'Science of Reading,' Teachers Say (Elizabeth Heubeck); (5) Reading Comprehension Challenges and Opportunities, in Charts (Stephen Sawchuk); (6) Classroom Reading Groups: What Works and What Doesn't (Sarah Schwartz); (7) Students Need to Make Sense of What They Read.
