Prevent Reading Difficulties With Strong Tier I Instruction
I'm very excited about my latest teacher resource book, my first with Corwin Literacy. The book, which drops March 30, first shows how the brain learns to read and then quickly segues into  Tier 1 instructional practices that help prevent reading difficulties in many children, preK to grade 3. Included are dozens of effective and practice activities, strategies, and routines in the areas of language comprehension, phonology, orthography, and the extended reading of all types of text. Hope you will visit the place where the science of reading meets the art of teaching readers!

My latest books for children are out and boy do they look great! Published by Black Rabbit Books, the six-book series is part of the BOLT imprint, which offers a unique hi/lo informational books for struggling and reluctant readers. To be honest, I don’t follow sports closely, but researching the achievements of the featured athletes left me inspired. With skill, practice, and unrelenting determination, humans can achieve great things! blackrabbitbooks.com/bolt.php
