This is wonderful website. Reading Rockets' mission is to take that research-based and best-practice information and make it available to as many people as possible through the power and reach of television and the Internet.
Launched in 2001, Reading Rockets is an education initiative of WETA, the flagship public television and radio station in the nation's capital.
Reading Rockets produces free webcasts for teacher professional development. The webcasts offer teachers an opportunity to hear from national experts, and are available online to watch at any time. Topics include how to establish an effective reading program, assessment, pre-reading skills, teaching English language learners, writing, and parent engagement.
In my humble opinion, Reading Rockets should be in every teacher's bookmarks. It is an incredible resource that is completely free of charge. Its only purpose is to help teachers and parents who have struggling readers or just to promote literacy.
Reading Rocket also has a version in Spanish titled: www.Colorincolorado.org
