You might consider Meredith Davis from the Manhattan New School. I'm not sure exactly how to contact Meredith, but I'm copying her mom, Judy Davis. Judy retired from the Manhattan New School and is the author of The No-Nonsense Guide to Teaching Writing. Meredith has done some good work with a friend of mine in Greenwich.

Our district has a contract with Steph and she has done many professional growth days for us. In fact she will be with us this Friday and I am looking forward to hearing her new thoughts. Her website for the kit has lots of good information and explanations. I think it is Comprehensiontoolkit.com. We spent many days this year finding books and articles to use with the kit. The teachers like it, but they find that to do the lessons takes lots of time. Her organizers are very good. There is also a CD of the articles she uses. Each school started with 3 copies and we have added more. If you are interested in learning more about it, go to the website.

There are lesson plans to help the teacher introduce the lesson, and then practices and assessments for the students to complete. I found that the practices were often enough for most of the students. However, I only assigned assignments that I had already introduced with the class. Reading, writing and math are all covered on this site.
