About the store
Hi! I'm Laura. I have taught Foundation to Year 2 for all of my teaching career. Over the past 4 years of teaching, I have made it my mission to understand the best way students learn - through the SOLAR approach. I dreamed of creating this store in order to make resources that meet students exactly where they are at, lower cognitive load and support students not succumbing to the forgetting curve. I want to ensure students and teachers have access to resources that support them in this approach and can be used in a variety of ways - Daily Review, Explicit Phonics, Phonics Centres, Intervention Groups and more.
