Good morning! I am so glad you asked that question. We are currently working on it for Android systems as well. It will be ready in the near future.

Hello. This is an excellent point. Your children are quite fortunate to have you and the schools they are attending. The overwhelming majority of children in Los Angeles schools are taught to sight read. I understand that the Manhattan school district has recently adopted a "new" reading system which is a sight reading program. These sight reading programs are ubiquitous in schools because they give the delusion of early reading success while leaving children with non of the requisite skills to become excellent readers. There is a great deal of conversation about phonics, but when it is taught it is taught poorly and sporadically. This is why 70% of graduating seniors from LA schools, read so poorly that they are unprepared for the academic rigors of community college. Data from the national assessment of reading progress shows that 68% of 4th grade children read below grade level.

Thank you so much for the time you take to teach our children. We have been using our product in 40 schools. Our approach to phonics has been successful both in schools where the majority of the children come from non-English speaking homes, as well as, from more affluent backgrounds. Our data shows that children who enter the class in the lower 50 percentile of age-matched readers, are in the top 50 percentile after using Phoneme farms for 1 year. Additionally, children who are already in the upper 50 percentile, are in the top 25% after using phoneme farms for the year. Thank you again for your work.

That is a fantastic idea! I will speak to our IT team.

Currently, these are all Los Angeles based schools. However, we are attempting to move forward on a national level.
