Applying Reading Research in Fun & Effective Ways

Hello!

I’m Pamela, an Intervention Specialist with a master’s degree in elementary reading and experience in regular and special education. I love seeing the excitement on students’ faces as they grow in their reading abilities and build self-confidence.

Having used many reading programs over the past 20 years, I’ve yet to find one that has it all. Even if they align with solid reading research, usually what’s missing is the feel-good factor for kids. That’s why I’m passionate about creating literacy resources that are fun and effective for students and easy and enjoyable for teachers.

My husband Jack, who has artistic talent and 17 years’ teaching experience, illustrates many of my unique decodable books and letter cards.
