Richard Allington and Rachael Gabriel outlined the six elements of **effective reading instruction** in a recent article in Educational Leadership (March 2012). They are:
 * 1) Every child reads something he or she chooses.
 * 2) Every child reads accurately.
 * 3) Every child reads something he or she understands.
 * 4) Every child writes about something personally meaningful.
 * 5) Every child talks with peers about reading and writing.
 * 6) Every child listens to a fluent adult read aloud.
