This class might be the best professional development I have done in the last 5 summers. I was looking for something to support reading and readers at the secondary level, and this course was bursting with WILD (not so much crazy) ideas to implement. Jeremiah does a fabulous job of facilitating a highly applicable book with relevant and differentiated activities for participants. Get ready for great discussions, stellar resources and prompt feedback to your submissions. Don't miss out--sign-up for the next session!

Hands down, this is one of the best classes I have taken. I have taken book studies before in which the class has ruined the book due to meaningless and empty assignments. This is not the case. Jeremiah gives assignments that are meaningful and help you grow as a teacher. The book will change your view of teaching reading to your students. I am so glad I took it!

This is a great class for anyone who teaches reading or coaches readers in any capacity. Jeremiah's prompt and specific feedback for all discussions and assignments were much appreciated!
