Reading Success

My children love these books not only for the cute characters, but because it gives them so much confidence. The program does a wonderful job teaching phonics and then using the readers to strengthen their fluency. They are so motivated to read the books and they can see their own reading improvements each week.

Ongoing storyline

Most decodable readers don’t have an ongoing storyline but the Up-Words stories build interest with Gus and the gang. My students are always excited to read about Gus’s next adventure!
