Bringing literacy research into the classroom—

Making  effective instruction engaging, inclusive and achievable!

Welcome to Between The Covers of a Good Book!

If you're a primary school teacher who lights up at the smell of fresh paperbacks, knows the thrill of a perfectly-timed read-aloud, or just wants research-based literacy ideas without spending hours online—you're in the right place.

This space is built for teachers who care deeply about how children learn to read, write and make meaning. Here, you’ll find reasearch-based practices grounded in the science of reading—because good literacy instruction is more than just good intentions. It’s structured, it’s explicit, and yes—it can still be joyful.

Whether you're newly qualified or a seasoned teacher, you’ll get honest insight into what actually works, how to engage students, and how to build confident readers and writers in every classroom.

So grab a cuppa, have a scroll, and let’s get stuck into the good stuff—because there’s so much more to explore between the covers.

"This course was absolutely fantastic! I have learnt so much from Treasa in terms of how I can develop as a literacy instructor. Her ideas are innovative and relevant in the classroom today. Thank you so much, I will 100% be recommending this course to all of my colleagues."

"I found this course to be truly excellent. The balance between research and practical classroom applications was remarkable. It has left me feeling empowered and well-prepared to implement changes in my instruction, knowing they are founded on solid research. Moreover, I deeply appreciate the fact that Treasa continues to teach, as it adds authenticity and practicality to all the recommendations provided. If she can do it, I know that I can do it (or at least try to do it). Please, never leave the classroom!."

"In 16 years of doing courses, this is hands down the best one I have ever done. Such amazing information given, well thought out, nice and clear and 100 percent relevant to current classroom situations. I love how no matter what is suggested, Treasa always provides scaffolds for us to use with our students - not only is she helping us support our students, she's also supporting us. Super suggestions, activities and resources provided that can actually be implemented in the classroom. So grateful that Treasa took the time to put this course together. She is truly gifted at what she does and really is an inspiration to become a better teacher."
