Well, hello!

My name is Anna Geiger. I’m a former teacher (M.Ed.) and mom of six.

I was a balanced literacy advocate for twenty years. As both a classroom teacher and teacher educator, I promoted three-cueing using leveled texts. (I was sure that decodable books would kill a love of reading.) I taught phonics, but I didn’t use a scope and sequence. I provided very little direct instruction because I was sure it would bore my students.

Fast-forward to 2019, when I began to realize that many of my teaching practices weren’t backed by research. After my initial grieving period, I became Orton-Gillingham certified and earned a Science of Reading graduate certificate. As it turns out, a structured approach isn’t boring after all! In fact, it’s essential for many students and beneficial for all of them.
