Multiple Paths to Literacy shows how to make literacy accessible for all learners. It presents an analytical approach (consistent with Response to Intervention/RTI) with practical strategies for recognizing students' literacy strengths and needs, planning and differentiating instruction, and meeting standards. The strategies and techniques presented are appropriate to, or easily modified for, any grade level from primary through secondary school.
