This paper presents a case study of students learning to read and write with English informational books through four instructional strategies in a school in Taipei County. The goal of the research is to explore the teaching process of assisting students in learning to read and write with English informational books through K-W-L strategy, interactive read-aloud strategy, vocabulary instructional strategy and written retelling strategy. Furthermore, the research also explores students’ responses to K-W-L strategy, interactive read-aloud strategy, vocabulary instructional strategy and written retelling strategy. In this study, we found that K-W-L strategy can evoke student''s prior knowledge to the theme, promote students asking questions that inspire their interests in reading, revisit what students wrote in K and W activities that help they reconstruct and modify their knowledge continuously. Interactive read-aloud strategy can help peers share what they know that help the others learn new things and teacher''s questioning can assist students to read and write in English spontaneously. Vocabulary instructional strategy can help students to write in English and to construct the meanings of the new words to increase their reading comprehension. Written retelling strategy can promote students to share, read, write spontaneously and acquire expository text.
