About this app

Reading.com is the ground-breaking reading app for kids and phonics program brought to you by Teaching.com, a world leader in education helping over 75 million students and 1.7 million educators worldwide.

Reading.com is a fun, co-play experience designed by education experts to help your kid learn to read — with the love, care, and joy only a parent and child can share. From ‘ABC’ to ‘I Can Read!’, help your child become a fluent reader with the help of phonics, sight words, and spelling games for kids.

Children are 19x more likely to learn from an app when using it with a parent (source: Psychology Today), and Reading.com is the only reading app that is specifically designed for a parent and child to use together!

A RESEARCH-BACKED APP TO LEARN TO READ

Reading.com’s phonics-based lessons are backed by research and fully scripted so you don’t need any special training or knowledge to become the most powerful teacher your child will ever have.

This is the perfect reading app for kids in preschool, kindergarten, and 1st grade.

GO FROM LETTER RECOGNITION TO CONFIDENT READING

As your kid masters more letters, sounds, and words, they'll unlock a playful world of reading activities including interactive books, videos, reading games, and printable activities.

Thanks to simple guided instruction, you’ll not only experience your child mastering each phonics lesson, but will also foster a lifelong love of reading you can share together.

By lesson 10, your kid will be reading their first book!

THE MOST MEANINGFUL (TEAM)WORK OF YOUR LIFE

Each phonics lesson takes just 15 - 20 minutes to complete and they’re designed for you and your child to go at your own pace.

Lessons cover letters, letter blends, short & long vowel sounds, and digraphs, taking your child from basic ABC alphabetic knowledge to reading at a late 1st grade/early 2nd grade level.

This is the easiest head start you’ll ever give your child!

DISCOVER DETAILS OF OUR READING PROGRAM

1️⃣ LEARNING LETTERS
Your child will develop a strong foundation in letter recognition, letter-sound knowledge, and other pre-reading skills. You will guide them as they practice writing letters, develop phonemic awareness, and deepen their understanding of letter sounds through interactive games.

2️⃣ BLENDING LETTERS
In this phase, your kid will use their knowledge of letter-sounds to begin blending letters together to read words. Your child will become adept at using our sound sliders to support them in decoding words with short vowel sounds and both slow & fast consonants.

3️⃣ READING BOOKS
Once your child has a foundation in word-blending skills, it’s time to read books! Together you will read fun and engaging stories, reveal hidden pictures, and check for understanding by answering comprehension questions.

4️⃣ ADVANCED DECODING
In this phase, your kid will learn about long vowel sounds, digraphs, and irregular sight words, as well as how to approach common types of punctuation.

5️⃣ READING FLUENCY
In this final phase of reading development, your child will learn to read smoothly and accurately by expanding their sight word knowledge, vocabulary, and exposure to more complex text.

I purchased a monthly subscription to this service months ago and have been using it. Even though it was just paid again this month and is not due another month. The app kept saying that i needed to get a subscription. Thinking my subscription was canceled, i clicked on monthly subscription it subscribed me again but the receipt i received in the mail was for the whole year, which i did not choose. I saw i had monthly and yearly subscription and they wont refund me.

The concept is GREAT! My girls really enjoyed the format and games until I had to cancel. The introduction to "Y" is a mess. It is introduced as a consonant, but then they throw in "Amy" and "gray" with no explanation. I overlooked that, explained it to my child myself and wrote an email to the company explaining how it was confusing. Their response was quick, but lacking in understanding of why it was a problem. They also teach "horse" and "for" have long o sounds.

Super engaging and fun app! It's great to work with young kids, or as a refresher for elem age. The lessons are short but interactive and my 3 year old loves it. As a teacher, I'd change some things- using the terms upper/lowercase instead of big/little, using "the letter spells the sound" instead of "says", and being more aware of pictures that go with letter sounds (elephant isn't the best representation for E since it has the sound L, not short e), updating some of that language= 5 stars
