About Me

Hello to all you wonderful humans! 
 
I am so glad you found my little spec on the Internet! I am Pam Olivieri, an author who spent 26 years in the classroom, spreading joy and knowledge like confetti. From this passion emerged ROCKIN RESOURCES®️® and ROCKSTAR WRITERS®️®, aimed at motivating reluctant learners. With a Master of Arts in Teaching and National Board Certification, I found inspiration to write books featuring expressive language and promoting character development. My proudest moments are with my family, including my pampered kitty, and the former students who still call me Mrs. O. When not writing, I enjoy lake activities, live concerts, and serving nonprofit education organizations.
 
Persevere like a butterfly!
Pam

Client Testimonials

“Holy Guacamole!!! This is by far the BEST WRITING RESOURCE I have ever purchased! Teaching writing is hard, and teaching writing to little people is even harder, but this is so fun and broken down into manageable steps without making you pull your hair out. THANK YOU!!!”
Nadia
"You are an angel! Not only is this a spectacular resource but my students are constantly engaged. I’ve never used an interactive notebook type resource before and I am sold! The children are learning without realising it and I have never had such success with narrative writing across so many students. I am pleasantly amazed. Looking forward to moving onto the other text types as the year progresses. Thank you so much!"
Carmen
"Pam Olivieri, the renowned and respected educator, has created an endearing story about Demi and her perseverance in achieving her goal. While searching for the perfect story, Demi finds her own story with the help of her grandfather and a special teacher. The book contains many relatable child-like images with a good mix of science, the theme of determination, and a twist of fantasy. The text includes teaching components of figurative language, text features, thematic development, characterization, and opportunities for Socratic questioning about intergenerational relationships and synergy."
