Secret Stories® is not a program, but an open-ended teacher tool-kit designed for cross-grade level use, that helps teachers make phonics make sense to kids. The Secrets are the easiest thing you will ever teach, as they aren’t skills kids have to learn, but “secrets” they want to know!
“If teachers don’t have clear purchase on what it takes to become a good reader, then their instructional successes will be fortunate accidents. The same can be said for the principals and district leaders who supervise them.” —Dr. Timothy Shanahan
No more having to say, “It just is… It just does… You just have to remember…” when asked about the sounds letters make in words. Now you can just tell them the Secret!
Secret Stories® make phonics make sense to struggling readers by providing the logical explanations for letter sound behaviors that the brain craves.
