Secret Stories® bridges the gap between how kids learn and how reading is traditionally taught, accelerating phonics mastery with evidence based strategies for the most effective results.
FOR CLASSROOM TEACHERS
Secret Stories® turns tricky phonics patterns into stories, songs, and movement your students actually retain. It layers on top of any curriculum with no extra prep and no new instructional blocks.
You already have a curriculum. What you probably do not have is a way to explain why ch says /ch/, or why the e on the end of cake changes everything. Those are the moments where instruction stalls and students start guessing instead of decoding.
Secret Stories® gives every tricky pattern a reason a child can hold onto. Because the explanations are stories rather than rules, students recall them under pressure, in running text, weeks after the lesson. Nothing gets replaced and no block gets added, you simply have a better answer ready the moment a student needs one.
The posters go up once. From day one they are a reference students use on their own during reading and writing, not another thing you have to manage.
No pacing guide to follow. When a pattern appears in your existing lesson or a decodable text, you tell that Secret. It takes under two minutes.
The signal that it worked is unprompted. Students spot Secrets in library books, on the word wall, in each other's names, and use them without being asked.
Secret Stories have been the best tool I've added to my classroom. Student scores have increased significantly since implementing these fun, memorable stories to our classroom.
