Reviews
"For parents, teachers, and anyone who cares about the potential of education to brighten kids' futures, reading The Knowledge Gap will be an eye-opening experience. Through vivid classroom scenes and stories of would-be reformers, Natalie Wexler exposes a crucial aspect education that is often overlooked: In most American elementary schools, teachers are not given the training and support they need to provide deep, rich content--about history, social studies, science, language and the world around them. And students, especially vulnerable ones, suffer for it."-- Peg Tyre , author of The Good School: How Smart Parents Get Their Children the Education They Deserve "The knowledge gap is real, and its effects are profound. This book offers an accurate, engaging, and clear description of the problem and how to solve it. It's a must-read for educators, parents and policy makers."-- Dr. Judith C. Hochman , founder of The Writing Revolution; co-author, The Writing Revolution: A Guide to Advancing Thinking Through Writing in All Subjects and Grades "Natalie Wexler adopts multiple perspectives--the scientist, the teacher, the philanthropist, the historian, and others--to offer a comprehensive answer to the simple question 'Why don't American students read well?' This book is smart, important, and a fascinating read."-- Daniel T. Willingham , author of The Reading Mind: A Cognitive Approach to Understanding How the Mind Reads ; professor of psychology, University of Virginia "Using concrete and compelling examples, Natalie Wexler reveals that most American classrooms follow a misguided approach to teaching reading that is especially damaging to students from low-income families. But she also shows that when educators rely on materials backed by research, they can go a long way toward producing the educated citizens we need. For anyone concerned about educational equity and excellence, The Knowledge Gap provides a way to think about both the problem and solutions."-- Karin Chenoweth , author of Schools that Succeed: How Educators Marshal the Power of Systems for Improvement ; creator of the ExtraOrdinary Districts podcast
