Every parent wants to see their child thrive, but when the lessons coming home feel confusing or the nightly reading routine turns into a struggle, it’s easy to wonder if you’re missing something. The truth is, no one hands parents a roadmap for how reading is actually taught—and without it, supporting your child can feel frustrating and overwhelming.

That’s exactly why the Elephant Shoes Master Classes were created. These short, easy-to-follow video sessions peel back the curtain on what really happens in classrooms from elementary through high school. You’ll learn how reading skills develop, what teachers look for at each stage, and how to reinforce those same skills at home. Every class includes clear explanations, practical strategies, and printable tools that make helping your child feel not just capable, but empowered.

Simply choose the level that matches your child—Elementary, Middle, or High School—and learn at your own pace. Each Master Class breaks down essential academic language, skill progressions, and real examples of strong reading work so you can finally see what “good reading” looks like and how to guide your child toward it.

If you’re ready to feel more confident and give your child a stronger path forward, start with the Reading Master Class today. With more topics like Writing, Study Skills, and Multilingual Learner support on the way, this is the perfect first step in your child’s learning journey. One class today can spark real change by tomorrow.
