{"product_id":"scaffolding-complex-texts-mitchell-brookins-9798225018559","title":"Scaffolding Complex Texts: How to Plan and Teach for Deeper Comprehension in Grades 5-8","description":"This book challenges the idea that using simplified texts to teach struggling readers is the best approach. It argues that although authentic complex texts are more demanding, reading them fosters critical thinking, vocabulary growth, and a deeper understanding of the world. Literacy expert Mitchell Brookins offers a framework for supporting students in grades 5-8 as they engage with complex texts, guiding them through syntax and text features, while building their fluency, vocabulary, and writing skills. With practical tools like templates, lesson plans, and videos, this book helps teachers empower students to develop stronger literacy skills and become more confident, curious, and self-driven learners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mitchell Brookins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798225018559\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scholastic Professional\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Mitchell Brookins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48743210680575,"sku":"9798225018559","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/scaffolding-complex-texts-mitchell-brookins-9798225018559","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
