Sounds, words and vocabulary
Match sounds, recognise useful words and use context to work out unfamiliar language.
Reading · Activity guide
Reading practice for meaning, not just marks.
Children need more than a correct word. Short questions can help them follow a sequence, notice a clue, choose evidence and explain what a character might do next.
No account or card. This is a mixed ten-question demo; signed-in learning starts from the choices on your child’s Home.
Ideas to explore
A path from hearing words to reading between the lines
These are general reading ideas, from short prompts to passages. They are not a complete course or a list of activities available to every child after sign-in. The age and grade guides are approximate.
Sequence and summary
Put events in order and decide which detail matters most to the whole text.
Inference and evidence
Notice what the writer implies and point to the words that make an answer sensible.
After the demo
Choose from what is available for your child.
After sign-in, your child’s Home shows the learning goals currently available for their age and level. The demo and printable in this guide are separate ways to try an activity. Practice collections chosen with a parent are separate; these record practice, not independent learning progress.
- Choose 5, 10 or 15 questions for practice
- Teaching has separate steps where offered
- Parent reports distinguish practice from independent progress
More activity ideas
Small prompts with a clear purpose
- Early reading: Which picture begins with the same sound as “sun”?
- Sequence: A seed is planted, watered and then sprouts. What happened second?
- Author’s choice: The writer calls the room “a cave”. Which feeling does that comparison create?
