I’m excited to finally share that my first book, Scaffolding Complex Texts, will be released by Scholastic in October 2026.
This book is rooted in a belief that has shaped much of my work as an educator:
Complexity is worth it🔥🔥🔥
This book is about helping teachers scaffold students’ intellectual growth against the staircase of complexity.
Stay tuned!

Turn & Talks- Ss opportunities to rehearse thinking & language to enhance content & oral language development. Research shows Ss often get 20% of the day to engage in meaningful interaction during their day. How do you encourage Ss interaction? @ButlerCountyESC #ComplexText

Always a pleasure catching @Dorina_BELIEVE at the #LiteracyMatters conference! She provided an engaging 2 hour session on #scaffolding, #wordwalls and making #complextext #accessible and #equitable for #elementary #emergent #multilingual #scholars #ELLs #newcomers @CSUSA_FL_ELL

Readers of non-fiction are intentional! They know how to tackle the hard parts. Mrs. Sweeney’s 4th graders dissected a Social Studies article in preparation for their region research project.

Our teachers and admin were busy this morning engaging in PD around #theopportunitymyth, #ELA and #complextext. We loved collaborating with Tate ES and Hancock ES around the intellectual preparation needed for ELA. Thank you @TNTP for a great PD! #ccsd #teamdragons @SarahPopek4

Making connections in #ComplexText requires @LPSEDGE to write out their notes to share during #SocraticSeminar tomorrow. #lpsleads #CriticalThinking

Looking for ways to engage more students more frequently with more text? Try making Quarter Turns! This resource offers 10 small pivots that can provide supports for students to access grade-level complex text. https://t.co/WWRcPfOaWW #complextext #achievethecore #teachreading

Engaging in complex text & primary sources to learn about Westward Expansion, the perspectives, and causes and effects! @jameselementary @OttumwaSchools #complextext #socialstudies #primarysources #5thgrade #literacy #education #elementary
For the first time for this class to get involved in silent graffiti these students did great. They were able to make connections with each other, think of new and complex questions and also make connections with their previous knowledge! #silentgraffiti #fifthgrade #complextext

Learning as leaders with @TNTP. #intellectualprep is key to leveling up student learning! @TNedu #shifts #complextext #IPGinTN #studentindependence

So impressed by the attention to detail as we close our our day @msa_w. I can’t wait to see what comes next. #becauseweareWEST #complextext #readwritereason

In #Shakespeare, we encounter language about race, difference, and power. Join us this summer to learn how to teach through that language and get students thinking critically about any #complextext #ShakeRace. Learn more: https://t.co/wyTHArfDpL

Taking a #languagedive with my 4/5 class to break down the articles in the UDHR to then analyze our novel study of Esperanza Rising. #WeGotThis #complextext #bigsentencepower @CajonValleyUSD @LexingtonCVUSD @SanDiegoAreaWP

This week we are building some knowledge before our American Revolution Unit. We are learning about Alexander Hamilton and had the opportunity to read some of George Washington’s Farewell Address. #complextext #primarysource #5thgrade #engagement @OttumwaSchools

How is vocabulary like blood? Just like blood is essential to the life of humans, vocabulary is the blood that courses through the veins of #complextext. #CLOSEReading is FUN-but-MENTAL.

Readers expect their characters to have challenges. Ss list problems their characters face and identify the #boilingpoint of their text. #cohort2classroom #complextext #buildingstrongreaders #ruos @MRI_Family @BerkCoSchoolsWV @JMichaelBowman5 @SarahLewis903

This document clearly and effectively outlines for teachers why a text-centered literacy block is inevitably the most effective. #commoncore #elachat #readingresearch #complextext #allkidscan
PY and G1 teachers participating in an early morning webinar. #complextext is a must for language learners. #duallanguage #sustainandextend @NCIC_Immersion

My last hurrah in professional development at HCPS—learning with Dr. Tim Shanahan. During his 50 years of teaching reading, this guy always gets it right!

In Ms. Burgos’ class, students annotate the text to develop a deeper understanding. Teacher modeling, anchor supports, and students actively questioning and annotating. #complextext #CriticalThinking
