"Through this text, the authors provide rich, yet practical resources for K-5 teachers and teacher educators to broaden their knowledge and expertise to incorporate digitally supported disciplinary literacy instruction." --Journal of Language and Literacy Education "This noteworthy and practitioner-focused book would be a great addition for a classroom teacher's library or on an elementary methods course reading list." --Teachers College Record "I was very impressed with the way the authors put three very 'hot topics' together, explained how they connect, and laid out a clear, highly detailed teaching framework that makes use of those connections. I also really liked the authors' reassurance that since the Core Disciplinary Practices are standards-aligned, teachers need only to extend what they are already teaching to include a disciplinary literacy element, using the PEDDL Framework to guide them." --Illinois Reading Council Journal
