Unpacking the Pyramid Model is a clear and comprehensive roadmap for implementing the Pyramid Model. Hemmeter, Ostrosky, and Fox and an all-star cast have distilled a wide array of research-based Pyramid practices into a guide that will be helpful for brand-new teachers and veteran early educators alike. Every teacher of young children should have this book and learn from the experts."—Judith Carta, Ph.D., Senior Scientist and Professor, Juniper Gardens Children’s Project, University of Kansas"We’ve been waiting for this book and now it’s here! Unpacking the Pyramid Model is an invaluable resource for anyone in the field of early care and education. It’s evidence-based. It’s feasible. And the authors have struck an inspirational tone. Students and practicing teachers will want to try out these strategies in their own classrooms.
