WordFlight is an online literacy solution designed to attack gaps in literacy knowledge and skills in a way that directly targets the development of automatic word recognition – a key precursor to fluency.
WordFlight includes a quick Screener to identify students likely struggling with basic reading skills, a powerful Diagnostic to help identify exactly where problems lie, and the WordFlight Instructional Program that provides personalized, adaptive instruction - preparing each student to automatically use foundational skills resulting in fluency, and ultimately, reading comprehension.
WordFlight has been proven effective for students developing foundational reading skills as well as persistently struggling readers, special needs students, English language learners, and students who learn differently.
Our mission is to improve the literacy of all students, particularly those who struggle, by working with educators to build successful learning environments in schools and providing them with effective instructional tools based on proven learning models. We believe we will be successful with students only if we can redefine the relationship between schools and providers of curriculum and instructional tools.
