Review: Must read for all teachers - This should be on a reading list for all teachers working with young elementary students. Great ideas for building oral and literacy skills for all students.
Review: Easy to read and understand - Purchased as a resource book for reading small groups. I wanted to learn some tips for directing small group discussion related to reading. This is geared more for PreK - 2 grade on how to engage students in more in depth conversations. It would be very helpful as a resource. It also has great tips for parents on how to foster the conversation learning process at home. I have picked up a few ideas on how to incorporate some of the skills in my small groups.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rich Conversations for BIG Gains!
*by S***R on January 26, 2024*

This book contains excellent ideas for boosting children's oral language to ensure they are prepared for--and enjoy--instruction in reading and writing. The authors offer a simple framework for engaging children in rich conversations to boost their vocabulary, understanding of language structures, verbal reasoning skills, and knowledge of themselves and the world--and, by doing so, fill a huge gap in the science-of-reading conversation! Plus, they offer loads of children's book suggestions, teaching ideas, and demonstration videos. This book has changed the way I teach and my students learn!
