Testimonials

"This is my first year to use Reading Rewards and I am loving it. I love the Reading Rooms and reviews and the option to buy the books with just a click.

I love the animations and badges and RR miles. My first graders are doing a great job. Some parents were a little leery of using the program, but it was easy for me to walk them through it and now they are all on board.“

- Ruth, 1st Grade Teacher in Alabama

""I LOVE YOUR SITE!!!! My kids are so excited to read every night now :-).“

- Kate, Teacher in Pasco County, Florida

“My 130 students and I are LOVING this website! So amazing to be able to create a community of readers! [...] Thank you for this wonderful resource!“

- Teacher Rutherford County, Tennessee

“We now have all the kids and homeroom teachers of grades 1-5 enrolled! :-) A few teachers have taken off and gotten their kids going on it already—my own first graders have been “training” their peers, and loving it!!!

Once again, I’ll say your site is FABULOUS! [...] It is so very easy for even 6-and 7-year olds to navigate! Our Library Media Specialist [...] loves it too, as do many other adults and kids! Your fan club around here is growing at breakneck speed!!! :-)".“

- Joan, 1st Grade Teacher,Seymour, Wisconsin

""Your website is fantastic. I have almost all of my students on. We're just waiting for about 30 more kids to join and then our group will have 93.

The kids are thrilled with reading-rewards (fifth grade). I cannot thank you enough. [...] It made a huge impact on my students.

Many of my reluctant readers thrived on the format and we saw a large gain in reading levels."

- Michael, 5th Grade Teacher Peachtree City, Georgia

"Hi there. Our school recently joined Reading Rewards and I am addicted! We are a school from Centurion in South Africa called ***** .

Keep a look out for us. Just our junior phase has joined so far (Gr 1 - 3), but after our holidays, we aim to get our seniors (Gr 4 - 6) involved as well.

My class are tops and love the reading. I am more addicted than the other teachers and up checking their kids logs for them.

It has encouraged me to read more as well. Thank you so much for this awesome site!”

Teacher from Centurion, South Africa

“I must say I love your website. I am a 5th grade teacher in Massachusetts and I have been using your website for a couple months now.

I have seen my students reading has improved and kids have had the chance to talk with each other about book choices and suggestions which has enriched their reading experience."

Steve, 5th Grade Teacher Massachusetts

“Your website, by the way, is fantastic. I use it with my 7th grade English class at our small school in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and it has really encouraged the kids in their reading.“
