Structuring English courses around the integration of reading and writing skills enables struggling readers and writers to find their voices and blossom as writers. "The Reading-Writing Workshop" is an integrated reading, writing, and critical-thinking text for students who need this practice. A feature of this text is a strong focus on vocabulary - teaching students how to annotate readings to better determine word meanings, keeping a vocabulary notebook, and learning the words on the Academic Word List. This book is ideal for community college courses where reading and writing are integrated.
