What's STEPS Reading Center?

People always ask what Michael and I do in the off season. I've spent quite a bit of time this summer showing you what goes on here at the farm January to August, but I've never shared my "other life"! As most of you know, I taught elementary school for nearly 20 years, then left the classroom to teach teachers how to teach reading with explicit phonics. STEPS Reading Center is the company I own with my business partner, Monica Beebe. We develop online training and materials for teachers and parents so they can help kids learn to read, write and spell. We work with schools to help train teachers and work with parents who are supporting their kids in school. Many homeschool parents take our training to help them teach their children with explicit phonics, too. If you'd like, you can check out a free trial class during August by going to our site, www.stepsreadingcenter.com. Click on Support Login and click "Signup here". Choose "One Month FREE Phonogram Lab" and enter the coupon code "stepup" to STEP up into the upcoming school year! Please feel free to share this coupon code with anyone who might benefit from some back to school practice!
