When I first created Sweet Reads + Skills, my dream was simple:
To give busy teachers meaningful, easy-to-use reading packs that students would actually enjoy.
Now that more classrooms are trying them out, Iāve started hearing from educators who are seeing the resultsāand I couldnāt be more excited to share some of their stories with you.
š āMy students begged to read it again.ā
One 2nd grade teacher used The Picnic Problem on a Friday morning and messaged me that afternoon:
āThey loved the storyāand the comprehension questions were just right. We reread it during snack time because they asked for it again!ā
Win-win: engagement + standards-based practice.
š āPerfect for independent centers.ā
A 3rd grade teacher running rotating literacy centers told me she used The Missing Monarch for independent work.
āMy students could handle it on their own, which freed me up for small groups. The grammar page was especially helpful!ā
Thatās exactly what these packs are built forāflexibility without added prep.
š āI used it for a quick sub day.ā
Need something ready-to-go when life happens?
āI had to be out unexpectedly, and I printed off a Sweet Reads pack before leaving. It gave the sub structure and kept the kids learning.ā
And yesāthereās a teacher guide included in every pack, just for moments like this.
