The 4 early signals that predict whether your child will read well.
HOW IT WORKS
Four steps to clarity
A monitor you can return to as your child grows.
Quick setup, built for your child
Share your child's name and age. We personalize each check-in to match where they are as a reader.
A calm, guided check-in
Scan the code, hand them the phone, stay close by. Miss Pat leads them through activities, about 15 minutes.
Instant results, with a clear next step
Open your dashboard for clear results, and see the specific skill recommended next.
A daily plan, and growth you can see
A short daily plan built around their results, focused on the skills that matter most right now. Come back each month to monitor their growth.
Why Reading Compass
What makes Reading Compass different.
Built to give parents clear answers, real guidance, and a path forward.
Built for parents, not schools
Other reading tools are built for teachers, schools, or clinics. Reading Compass is built for parents, to use at home, on your timeline, in your living room.
Regular check-ins, not once a year
Most reading tools test your child once, at signup or once a year. Reading Compass is built for monthly check-ins, so you see growth as it happens.
A daily plan tied to your child
Not a score and a worksheet. A short daily plan focused on the skills your child is ready to grow next.
More than an assessment. A path forward
We don't just tell you where your child stands. We tell you what to do next, at home, with their teacher, or at school.
Designed for ages 3 and 4
Most reading tools start at kindergarten. Reading Compass is built for ages 3 and 4, when small gaps stay small.
Listen to your child's responses
Hear recordings of your child's actual responses, real evidence, not just a score. Listen for yourself.
