DESCRIPTION
Reading Friends is designed to teach children how to read through interactive games, puzzles, and music.
Developed by a Reading Specialist with a masters degree in special education, each lesson follows a developmentally appropriate sequence, beginning with skills for children who have little or no reading background through early grade school level reading.
Children will complete 10-17 games within each lesson and can revisit any previous lessons to reinforce what they've already learned.
This repetition gives children the needed practice for these skills to become part of their long-term memory.
The lessons are designed around themes that appeal to young children, such as Ocean Life, Prehistoric, and Transportation.
Each activity is highly interactive, fun, and will keep your children wanting more.
Children are rewarded with gold coins that they can spend on various prizes.
This encourages children to stay on task and keeps them motivated.
Children will learn the names and sounds of letters, identify and spell the most common high frequency words (sight words), recognize rhyming pairs, build word families and spell CVC words (consonant-vowel-consonant).
They will master all of the necessary reading readiness skills, such as left to right directionality, both in a word and a sentence, one to one correspondence, and being able to follow a pattern in a book created at their level.
The lessons get progressively harder, building on what your children have already learned.
Children can progress at their own pace, while being challenged to go on to the next developmental level.

Children can progress at their own pace, while being challenged to go on to the next developmental level.
Every lesson ends with a short pattern book that children will have a choice to read on their own or have read to them.
Each book highlights the skills that have been previously taught and encourage children to use other word solving strategies, such as initial sounds and picture cues to challenge them further.
The books also offer a chance for children to gain confidence as they begin reading on their own.
At the end of each theme (every 15 lessons), there is an assessment.
This assessment gives parents and teachers feedback on what your child is learning.
If children do not pass the assessment, they will be directed to go back and review previous lessons until they are able to pass.
Children can spend as much time in one lesson as they need in order to master it and go back to any previous lessons already completed.
The Reading Friends team has also added a Dyslexie font option.
With the click of a button, you can change the font throughout the entire website.
Just altering the font so that each letter is unique and can be recognized more easily, can help children immensely with dyslexia.
