their facts through the use of engaging and motivating

games which will help build mastery and confidence

through independent practice.

Raz-Kids is website that provides comprehensive leveled reading resources for your child. There are hundreds of eBooks offered at 27 different levels of reading difficulty, and is set where your child needs to be. 

Kids access their leveled text through an interactive learning portal designed to keep them motivated and engaged. Every eBook is available in online and mobile formats, and allows students to listen to, read at their own pace, and record themselves reading. Students then take a corresponding eQuiz complete with an extended answer response to test comprehension and determine future instruction needs. Once a child has read ten or more of the leveled eBooks and passed each of the corresponding eQuizzes, they advance on to the next reading level where they have access to lengthier and more difficult text.
