“Twice the Gain, Half the Time...
Phonics with the BRAIN in Mind!”
Secret Stories transform phonics skills kids have to learn into “secrets” they WANT to know, providing logical explanations for letter sound behavior that learners’ brains crave!
Secret Stories® Cracking the Reading Code with the Brain in Mind is a “backdoor-approach” to phonics skill mastery designed to underscore existing reading curriculum & instruction across the early (and struggling intermediate) grade levels. Secret Stories® equips both students and teachers with meaningful, relevant and logical connections to phonics skills so as to explain WHY letters “do what they do when they DON'T do what they should!"

Secret Stories® creator, Katie Garner, M.Ed., is an internationally known educational speaker, author and literacy consultant with twenty years of combined classroom experience and a passion for infusing neuroscience into literacy and learning. Her "backdoor-to-the-brain" approach to skill mastery via the affective “feeling” domain shifts the paradigms associated with early grade reading instruction, gaining national recognition with the No Child Left Behind, Reading First, and RTI Initiatives. As a featured and keynote speaker at conferences across the United States and abroad— including an ongoing keynote series at the Vulnerable Readers Summits with North American literacy leaders, Dr. Richard Allington ("What Really Matters for Struggling Readers") and Dr. Anne Cunningham (The National Early Literacy Panel “NELP” Report)— Katie shares brain-changing strategies for boosting existing, phonics skill instruction with the latest neural research showing how our brains learn best. Her practical and proven methods for bringing neuroscience into the forefront of literacy learning have been shared in both lecture and panel discussions at Harvard University and MIT as part of the Learning and the Brain Conference and Research Consortium and are the subject of an upcoming professional development book series.
