About the program…

Full of educationally sound, fun and interactive activities, Reading Eggs focuses on the most fundamental skill needed in school: reading. Children from 3 to 7 years of age or older children struggling with reading will enjoy the huge variety of reading lessons, activities and games that make up the Reading Eggs program. Reading Eggs focuses on a core reading curriculum of phonics and sight words and your child’s capacity to read will develop without them even noticing they’re learning.

In addition to the lessons there is Reading Eggs World which caters for 6-8 year olds who already know the basics of reading but who still have much to learn about reading, writing, spelling, and comprehension. Children are able to choose their own adventure from a wide range of activities including:

The Story Factory - this gives children an introduction to creative writing and they can put together stories to enter in a weekly story writing competition
Driving Tests - has 15 sight word tests, 15 letters and sounds test and 15 content word tests. Children are rewarded for correct completion with a driving game
Puzzle Park - children can access 32 word puzzles and practise sight word recognition
Skills Bank - holds 96 spelling lessons that takes students up to the end of key stage 1
Storylands - this area builds reading, vocabulary and comprehension skills and is perfect for children who have begun to read but aren’t quite ready for Reading Eggspress. It currently includes 20 e-books to read
The Arcade - includes 24 arcade-style games used as rewards to motivate children to keep learning. They need to earn Golden Eggs to play these so encourages them to work through lessons and educational activities before using the arcade

Reading Eggs also has a comprehensive reporting system that tracks progress so that students and their parents can clearly see each child’s achievements.
