Reading Rockets is a website designed to help young kids learn how to read and shows various ways on how adults can help. Reading Rockets works with PBS to provide resources for teachers and parents to help their children with reading and to also help struggling readers. On the website you will also find articles on teaching reading, video interviews with popular authors, research on classroom strategies, and videos to help parents. The videos provided also come in several languages so that it can be helpful to anyone around the world.
Teachers can use this website as an additional professional development resource. Reading Rockets provides a self-paced course called Reading 101: A Guide to Teaching Reading and Writing.
