Call for Manuscripts

The editors of The Reading Teacher, Robert B. Cooter Jr. and J. Helen Perkins, welcome manuscripts for two theme issues to be published in 2009–2010:

  • "Urban Literacy: Research–Based Solutions for City Kids" is scheduled for fall 2009. Deadline for submissions is March 1, 2009.
  • "Reading in Grades 4–6: Focus on Expository Reading" is scheduled for spring 2010. Deadline for submissions is August 1, 2009.

Manuscripts must provide an appropriate blend of practical classroom application and solid theoretical framework and must appeal to RT's broad audience of classroom teachers, university researchers, literacy consultants, coaches, and policymakers. All manuscripts will be subject to peer review with no guarantee of acceptance.
