For the Love of Reading and Writing
What I do is based upon what I believe, and the quote above spells out just what I believe. Regardless of age, grade level, geographic location, type of school, discipline, or curriculum, a student needs to be engaged in his or her learning to excel and succeed. I stand on this pillar of belief — so much so that recently I was asked by Heinemann to write an entire book based on that philosophy.
This philosophy drives my consulting with schools as well. Through a multi-tiered approach, I develop sustainable literacy initiatives alongside teachers, administrators and students. And, every case is as unique as is every student, every teacher, every school and every district. As such, each program is uniquely tailored to your school whether it is ranked among the best in the state or is failing to meet standards.
