Spotlight on Literacy Coaching

“Too often, what starts out as delight at discovering an intriguing new resource online quickly fades into irritation and discouragement when a few clicks later you find yourself mired in some ad-infested quagmire, reading a sales pitch for some cheesy vocabulary program. There are fantastic free resources on the web for literacy coaches, but you often have to wade through a lot of junk to find them.”
