Curriculum for multilingual learners, built for classroom teachers

ReadingPips™ is designed to accelerate foundational reading for multilingual learners in grades 3–6, in just ten minutes a day. Students can begin on day one, at any level of English.

Who ReadingPips™ serves

Many multilingual learners in grades 3–6 are still building the foundations of reading. ReadingPips™ meets them where they are.

From the first lesson, ReadingPips™ gives every student a way in through images, movement and shared routines. A student who once sat quietly at the edge of every lesson now participates actively, blends words independently, looks up and realizes, “I can read,” and carries that confidence into the rest of the day.

Newcomers, including SLIFE

Students new to English and new to reading, including students with limited or interrupted formal education.

Dually identified learners

Multilingual learners who also receive special education services.

Speaking English, ready to read

Students who speak English but are still building foundational reading skills.

Ten minutes a day. Ready on day one.

Designed for accelerated learning, ReadingPips™ connects sounds to letters through images, movement, routine and minimal teacher talk, so upper-elementary students build foundational skills quickly.

Fits your day

One 10-minute small-group routine, whenever it works best.

Built for classroom teachers

Video training, quick references and ready-to-print resources.

Built on how multilingual learners learn

Oral language grows alongside decoding, and students’ knowledge and experiences are strengths to build on. Culturally responsive and aligned to the Science of Reading, the WIDA ELD Standards and Common Core Foundational Skills.
