K – 12 Reading Instruction that Works
A New York second grade class is using ReadWorks on their computers and participating in teacher-led Q&A to build background knowledge through reading and activities.

We believe the power of collaboration with teachers is important to create accessible, ready-to-use instruction support tools. ReadWorks has been shown to have a positive impact on students’ reading growth and meets Tier-3 promising evidence of the US Department of Education's Every Student Succeeds Act.
