Comprehension Intervention That WORKS!
Limited Capacity filling up

Discover why I WILL NOT teach reading without Read Theory, the absolute best comprehension intervention tool I’ve used with students in over 30 years of teaching. The best part - the free version is all you need! I’ll walk you through exactly how I use the free version of this tool to empower students to increase their comprehension skills in a way that easily transfers to anything they are reading. There will be time for you to get accounts set up too. You will have plenty of time to explore Read Theory for yourself and start setting up how you will use it. PS: I am not affiliated with Read Theory, and get no compensation from them. I simply LOVE sharing things that work!
