Math Teacher
Having some Math examples to share with the [Math] department really helped us figure out how we implement some strategies with our current curriculum.

Science Teacher
The ability to actually adapt some of this stuff to chemistry easily was great. I know literacy is critical, but I didn’t know how to build it into my curriculum without it becoming an English Class!

I love the fact that my teachers can collaborate on the stuff they are interested in and find actually useful with our students!

Engagement Data
Unlike traditional resource libraries, our platform enables coaches and teachers to ask questions and find answers by actively engaging in collaborative discussion and problem-solving, where collective solutions from teachers and coaches ensure a thorough understanding and effective implementation approach of the strategies with student learners.
Central to this approach is our Engagement Dashboard, a user-friendly platform providing insights into teachers' activity, how they engage, and their engagement patterns. This differentiated data enables tailored recommendations and activities to meet teacher needs.
What Our Clients Say About Us
"Reading Ways' SCALE model simultaneously builds local instructional leadership capacity and scales research-based literacy practices in each content area classroom. We are working to extend this model beyond our high school to other schools in the district."
"When we were first introduced to Reading Ways, we were looking for a way to improve our secondary literacy outcomes and build internal instructional leadership capacity. The SCALE model helped us create a culture where teachers feel valued as they learn and are empowered by our amazing local site leader to try new approaches to literacy."
"As a new literacy coach, the Reading Ways team provided me with valuable resources and training that helped me to develop the knowledge and skills I needed to be effective. They also connected me with a community of coaches and literacy leaders who continue to refresh my learning and inspire my work."
