šŸ“š Virtual Reading Summit Starts Today! 25+ literacy experts!

Hey Reader, I know summer is a time for rest and recharging, but it's also a great time to discover new ideas and strategies when you aren't rushing to make copies or plan your next set of reading lessons. One of the hardest things as a teacher is getting professional development from people who haven't taught in a classroom in a decade. Just like me, so many of the Science of Reading Summit presenters work directly with kids each and every day. They know know what works... and what only...

Hello friends old and new! I know some of my longtime followers are probably wondering where I've been. It's been a rough year for me, to say the least. So this week's summit is the only new presentation I've recorded this year and I really hope you go check it out at the FREE Science of Reading Summit this week! My asthma has been exceptionally terrible, so all my hopes of other trainings went out the window this year, but this summit is always one of the best, so I made sure to make it...

Hey Dyslexia Devoted Fans! I hope you are well. A very kind member of this community sent me a sweet message this week, since I am normally very consistent at sending you guys resources and podcast episodes, but suddenly stopped. So I thought I'd give a little update and a surprise bonus to make up for my absence. Unfortunately, my asthma has hit an uncontrolled state with no end in sight. I can make it through the work day with my students, but by the evenings and weekends I'm wiped out with...

Happy Sunday! (or Monday depending on your time zone!) First, I just want to say how grateful I am to each of you who read my emails, attend my workshops, and listen to my podcast. I put my heart and soul into this business and your support means the world to me! By supporting Dyslexia Devoted and Parnello Education, you are helping a real person, not a big corporation.

Happy Friday, Reader! Grab today's deal! I saved the best for last! A **brand new** comprehensive class, with a $10 discount!

That’s why I created a new 1-hour educator training that shows you exactly how to combine morphology and decoding instruction—so you can teach more efficiently and...

Grab Today's *Brand New* Deal! Happy Wednesday! So, I had grand ambitions of making a cute cover for this workshop, but the pneumonia recovery mixed with asthma has made this month anything but going to plan! Lucky for you, this entire training was recorded before I got sick, so the content is spot on!

Happy Sunday! I know I usually try not to bug you on the weekend, but I think this one will be worth your time! The holidays are fast approaching and I know it's a busy season for parents and educators, and personally I hang around with a cozy blanket watching too many Hallmark holiday movies!

It will go live at 10:00 pm...

Happy Tuesday! My usual Thursday email didn't go out last week. Just making through the work week was a major feat when my lungs are still not running at full speed after double pneumonia. On the back end, I'm working on getting 2 new on-demand classes uploaded ahead of Black Friday Deal Week. I presented at a couple virtual conferences this summer, and got such great feedback that I wanted the trainings accessible to everyone who wasn't able to attend those events. More details to come next...
