Colleagues,

If you have not already received your copy of the Fall/Winter edition HOT

on the EFF Standard: Read with Understanding and contains:
    (1)An article by Amy Trawick which connects Reading Research to the 
Standard RWU  and presents implications for teachers.
    (2)An explanation of the EFF/NCFL Reading Project and specific 
contributions from     the five American Indian FACE programs that participated, along 
with contributions    from five other family literacy programs across the 
country.
    (3) An authentic classroom example of how two teachers in Norfolk, VA 
used the EFF    Teaching and Learning Cycle to integrate the components in a 
family literacy  program
    (4) An article by Marilyn Gillespie, which connects RWU to Learning to 
Read in English
    (5) The graphic of the Teaching/Learning Toolkit
    (6) Practical tools--The RWU Diary and Guide
