Join this free 30-minute webinar to get the 4-part framework that moves students from "This is boring" to "I get it," and re-ignites their will to read.
And you're not out of options.
The problem isn't YOU.
We are under so much pressure to move the needle with reading, and guess what?
...teaching in a pressure cooker isn't working.
Introducing
A New Mindset Framework for Resistant Readers
What if you could give students the right mindset for the right task? The 4 Reading Realms is a simple, powerful framework I developed to reframe reading. It stops the resistance by showing students why they're reading. We're not just 'reading'; we're building four distinct, essential life skills.
Believe it or not...
✅ The #1 Psychological Reason students resist reading (and the exact words to say to reframe it).
✅ The Complete 4 Reading Realms Framework to diagnose why a student is resisting a specific text.
✅ Key "Unconventional Affirmations" for each realm (like "why it's not cheating to skim a textbook").
✅ How to Talk About "Hard Books" in a way that builds student perseverance instead of frustration.
✅ A Simple, Actionable Plan to introduce this concept to your classes tomorrow.
When you register for this free 30-minute webinar, you're not just saving a spot—you're getting an essential toolkit of my best "Reframing Resistance" resources. This free bundle is my gift to you for investing in your students.
Stop trying to remember everything. Get the entire Four Reading Realms framework on one beautifully-designed, printable page. This is your new "at-a-glance" guide to pin to your desk for instant planning.
Start reframing your classroom culture instantly. You'll get the full, high-resolution, beautifully-designed poster of each realm at-a-glance. This isn't a sample; it's a ready-to-print tool to help your students see themselves as readers.
How do you put this into practice tomorrow? This is your new "go-to" tool. Get a ready-to-print, student-facing exit ticket that reinforces the 4 Realms framework. It's the perfect way to end a lesson, check for understanding, and help students connect their feelings about a text (like "frustration" or "boredom") to the purpose of the reading.
And creative approaches to student engagement and reading success are my passion! I believe deeply in the relentless pursuit of finding new ways to hook the most reluctant reader and support all students as they work to become informed, curious, and connected citizens.
With 13 years of high school English teaching experience and over eight years working in teacher leadership and professional development, I'm ready to help guide you through your work in reframing reading in your classroom. Let's go!
