Read Naturally is my favorite intervention program that we use in our school. It is very interactive and the kids really enjoy it. The stories are interesting and keep students engaged. I have even learned many random facts and have used my knowledge to win trivia contests with family. The kids are always excited when they “level up”. I have never had a student that dreads coming to learn on read live with me & that makes my job even easier!

Read LIVE is so important in our Resource Special Ed Room! The kids love reading the stories, improve their fluency scores, and love to do the Vocabulary builder short quizzes before the Red/Yellow tab Assessment is completed by the teacher with the student. The students have improved so much in their reading comprehension as well. Having to type responses also helps the students with their keyboarding skills. I must also add, by sitting with the students, I have learned so many new facts about various subjects. Keep up the good work!

I am an elementary special education teacher, and I have been using Read Naturally Live for reading fluency and comprehension since I began teaching in the LRC room two years ago. My students have made great progress using this program. They love the interesting stories and especially enjoy completing the crossword puzzle at the end of each lesson.
From a teacher’s perspective, I appreciate how quick and easy the program is to set up. After just a few sessions, students can work independently, which allows me to provide targeted support where it’s needed most. Many of my students are in the same grade but read at very different levels and Read Live Naturally makes it easy to keep each student working at their own instructional level.
I am so thankful our school found this program—it is one of the most frequently used and most valuable instructional resources I have in my classroom.

I have been using Read Naturally Live for about 4 years now in my Title I middle school classes. I have seen growth from a majority of my students using the program consistently. The students like the choice of readings the program provides and gives them knowledge of topics that they may not have seen before! Overall, I have loved the program and how easy it is to use in small groups!

I used Read Live all last year and loved the way it covered phonics rules, repeated reading, vocabulary development, and comprehension. I saw improvement in all of my students over the year. This is my favorite computer-based program that I have used. I am really grateful that my district is willing to continue offering it for sped.

Being a special education teacher, it can be hard to find a program that is versatile enough to cover all the needs of my students. Read Live is a great program that makes it easy for teachers to differentiate not only grade levels, but also independent reading skills. I have seen great progress in my students throughout the years of using this program!

I have been using Read Naturally Live for several years. This program is very effective for small-group intervention in grades 3-5. Enables easy differentiation for students of all ages and instructional levels. I am able to effectively differentiate to meet the needs of each student. My students love the high-interest nonfiction passages. The built in progress monitoring tool enables me to review data and inform parents, administrators and classroom teachers of my students' strengths and weaknesses. In addition, I use the Word Warm Ups Live features with third grade students to reinforce decoding & word attack strategies. One Minute Reader is the icing on the cake- each student can work at their own pace and practice fluency and comprehension skills while I am working with individual students. 10/10 recommend this product for any school district looking for a quality reading intervention program!!

This is my 3rd year utilizing the Read Live program in my self-contained classroom. I teach seventh grade students that are reading, on average, at a third grade level. My students have shown so much growth through using this reading program. Not only has their reading fluency increased but also there have been improvements to their reading comprehension skills as well. I know that my students get excited when they pass a story and are able to put their sticker on their charts. The program does a great job using the ribbon system to visually show students how well they did on each story. We are currently trying to find time within the school day to incorporate the Read Live program into our co-taught schedule. I think that this program would be beneficial to those students as well. In my thirteen year teaching, I have tried multiple reading programs and I can say that we have seen the most growth with his program than any other!

Read Live is a great resource or tool to reinforce areas of reading, as well as to measure growth. In addition, it also shares useful stories that have some factual information, but are entertaining for students. I would love to see total number count at the end of each line to measure reading fluency, as well as a key for teachers so we can focus on listening to more students read instead of taking time to create a key for each story in order to measure comprehension. Overall, this is a great tool and a quick way to see a snapshot of how students are progressing and in what areas they struggle.

Thank you for using Read Live! The program automatically calculates the student's word-correct-per-minute score so that neither the student nor the teacher has to waste any time counting words. The program also automatically grades the quiz and provides immediate audio feedback for the student about whether they got a question right or wrong. The teacher does need to mark the short-answer question as correct or incorrect, but there is a "See correct answer" button available on that screen for them to view possible responses. When a student gets a question wrong, the teacher may choose to go over the answer with them. They can do so by clicking to reopen the question from the Pass/Review Work screen. There is a dropdown field that allows the teacher to toggle between the student's answer and the correct answer, so the teacher does not need to spend time searching for the answer themselves. Please feel free to reach out to our Customer Support Team with any questions.

I have been using Read Live in my interventionist groups for the past 4 years. It is a wonderful program! We use it to boost fluency and comprehension for NWEA testing. We have found that those students who are just below the recommended score benefit from this program. I love to hear that the students I am seeing are passing their goals and achieving higher than expected scores. I would highly recommend this program!!

This is my 1st full year utilizing Read Live in my small groups and so far I am loving it! I have seen students who don't enjoy reading look forward to coming in my room to read on Read Live, some have been doing it for several years before coming to me and they aren't tired of it, which is refreshing. I look forward to receiving the update emails every month! Thank you for offering this program!
