About

Thrive Literacy Corner offers literacy resources based on the science of reading to help parents and educators create more effective and engaging lessons, and ultimately, cultivate strong and confident readers. I created this blog to help struggling learners bridge educational gaps in reading and gain confidence in themselves.
