About the store

Middle and high school ELA teacher and curriculum developer. I create classroom-tested annotation and close-reading packets for novel studies, grades 6-12, that get students marking the text, building vocabulary in context, and writing with evidence. Every packet is CCSS-aligned and ready to print and teach. My background is in literature, rhetoric, and composition, with years teaching readers and writers from middle school through college.
