Bringing Literacy to Life. Learning Outside the Lines.
Learning that is joyful, accessible, and hands-on is the kind students remember. With over 20 years experience as an educator and Special Education Specialist, I blend explicit, evidence-based teaching with active, experiential learning to spark curiosity, build confidence, and help every learner thrive — in the classroom and beyond. My students call me “Ms. Kathleen,” and that’s how I’d love for you to know me, too.
Lessons That Move – Literally
My resources blend structured literacy with movement, creativity, and fun. Think: literacy games, phonics you can act out, and outdoor activities that keep kids engaged and moving.

Teaching that Inspires
I help educators deliver evidence-based literacy with purpose, joy, and movement — indoors or out. I speak at conferences, share real-world teaching stories, and post ideas that work.
