The next generation of adaptive learning technology
My Reading Academy is an adaptive, evidence-based solution for pre-K through 2nd grade that’s grounded in science of reading research and designed to help children become skilled, fluent readers by 3rd grade.
The engaging program features over 100+ digital reading experiences that cover over 200 learning objectives. All learning games address concepts covered by common state standards.

The program ensures that each student progresses along a personalized path to mastery of reading skills to become an active, fluent reader.
