These days, it seems that everyone has a strong opinion about how to teach young children to read. Some may brush off the current tension as nothing more than one more round of “the reading wars.” Others may avoid the clash altogether due to the uncivilized discourse that sometimes results. Certainly, sorting the signal from the noise is no easy task.In this leading-edge book, authors Jan Burkins and Kari Yates address this tension as a critical opportunity to look closely at the research, reevaluate current practices, and embrace new possibilities for an even stronger enactment of balanced literacy. From phonological processing to brain research to orthographic mapping to self-teaching hypothesis, Shifting the Balance cuts through the rhetoric (and the sciencey science) to offer readers a practical guide to decision-making about beginning reading instruction. The authors honor the balanced literacy perspective while highlighting common practices to reconsider and revise—all through a lens of what’s best for the students sitting in front of us. Across six shifts, each chapteridentifies a common instructional practice to reconsiderexplores various misunderstandings that establish and keep that practice in playshares scientific research to support its reconsiderationproposes an instructional shift to apply a new perspective, anddetails several high-leverage instructional routines to support implementation of that shift. By pinpointing gaps and overlaps—as well as common misunderstandings and missed opportunities between the competing lines of thought—Jan and Kari offer busy educators direction and clarification for integrating science and balance into their daily instruction, while keeping meaningful experiences with text a priority.

I actually wrote the authors to thank them for courageously confronting the "Reading Wars" head on. Like many other educators, I have spent the last 20 years of my career investing my energies in best practices that are rooted in Balanced Literacy. I have also been confronting the science of reading. I feel like I am squarely in the middle of the two camps. I value instructional practices that emphasize meaning driven reading but I also have done my reading and understand the value of phonemic awareness and phonics. I have already begun making shifts toward increasing my attention to both within my reading groups. I love that the authors of this book understand the struggle to confront the research and to apply it to what we are currently doing. I love that this book addresses the research and makes it easy to understand. I especially love that the authors provide practical instructional practices that support shifts to our new thinking. If you are stuck somewhere in the middle of the Balanced Literacy and Science of Reading camps you will enjoy this book. Science of Reading followers (researchers, trainers, bloggers, Facebook group members) are passionate about their beliefs and sometimes their passion translates as downright nasty. It is hard to learn about Science of Reading research without feeling a bit assaulted. This book is like a warm blanket, comparatively speaking. You can learn about the research in a non-judgmental arena and make these personal and professional shifts at your own pace. We all want to do what is best for young readers. I love this book's attempt to bring us together for the sake of our students.
