WELCOME to Reynold's Power Reading for 7th and 8th grade! I have been teaching for a total of 21 years with the past 15 spent teaching at Reynolds Middle School.  My first year at PISD was in  2005.  Eleven of those years were spend teaching 8th grade ELAR. Eventually, I was given the opportunity to move into reading intervention and I now anxiously look forward to my 4th year in this area. Power Reading offers students the opportunity to receive small group intervention and improve in various ares of reading where they are struggling. My goal is to identify whatever gaps might exist and then implement what will best enable your child to be more successful at reading.  Using texts that are matched to their instructional level, students are taught various strategies that they can then transfer to performance in multiple subjects, clssroom work, and testing.  Daily emphasis is on teaching strategies to improve and individual students vocabulary, comprehension critical thinking and testing skills. I look forward to working together with you toward the same goal...your child's success!
