Additional biographical information

I design my products based on the students I teach who are more than likely struggling readers. They struggle with comprehension and analyzing text. So I make graphic organizers that ask the questions that I ask in class to help them connect and better understand what they are reading. I feel that other teachers share my dilemma and I hope that these products are helpful to them as well.
