Read full descriptionHide full description
Level One Reading is a free phonics app for children aged 4โ6, made by a teacher. Every book, game, and lesson follows the same phonics method used in UK reception classrooms. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Free, forever. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads. Decodable video books. Beautifully illustrated stories with video and narration โ and every word can be sounded out using the phonics your child has already learned. No memorising. No guessing. Phonics games. Designed to make practice feel like play, not homework. Progress reports for grown-ups. See exactly which sounds your child knows, which books they've read, and what they're ready for next. Made by a teacher, used by parents and teachers. WHAT'S INSIDE โ Phase 2 and Phase 3 sounds, taught one stage at a time โ 30+ decodable books, with new ones added regularly โ Tappable phoneme dots under every word, so your child can hear each sound separately and blend them together โ Sound it Out โ practise individual words at each stage, with mouth videos showing how each sound is formed โ Flashcards โ See, Draw, Repeat. Watch how a sound is made, trace the letter, then say it back. โ Tricky Words โ high-frequency words that don't follow phonics rules, taught with their own dream-world videos โ Stage Check โ alien words at the end of each stage. Made-up words that can only be read by sounding them out. The truest test of phonics. PRIVACY No accounts. No logins for children. No advertising. No tracking. No data sold. Your child's first name and reading progress are stored on their device. If you choose to save progress to the cloud, you can give us your email โ and that's the only data we ever ask for. See our privacy policy for full details. Level One Reading is built and maintained by Gamer School, a small UK education project. Made by a teacher and parent, for parents.
