Improving Students’ Reading Comprehension
By the time students reach middle school, the focus of reading instruction shifts to reading
Hi, I’m Kasey.
I am here to help English Language Arts teachers create a year-long teaching vision that brings together the how (instructional practices) with the what (reading and writing curriculum).
When I became a literacy coach, I knew that all teachers wanted to use the best instructional practices and curriculum materials for teaching reading and writing. However, a few common pieces always stood in the way: time and figuring out how to make a great idea into a classroom reality. I quickly discovered that professional development and coaching had to be coupled with practical, ready-to-use classroom resources for change to occur. This is what inspired me to create year-long curriculums for reading, writing, and word study.
I share practical, easy-to-implement ideas about teaching English Language Arts to middle school students.

Mentor sentences have the power to be the bridge between reading instruction and writing instruction.

My YouTube channel includes videos for teacher professional development and videos to use directly with students in your classroom.
What are teachers saying about my reading and writing resources?
