Ignition: Your Path to Reading Growth
Most middle and high schoolers need guidance on what to do while they read to get to comprehension.
Ignition presents these practices in an easy-to-understand digital experience, so that ALL students can reach reading success.
Close Reading: A Research-Based approach
Every student starts off with a Level Placement, so that we know each student’s current reading level.
Close Reading Experiences provide coaching to students of all reading levels, offering students a choice of diverse texts, from commonly-taught plays and novels to popular song lyrics and political speeches.
Vocabulary: A Multimodal Experience
Students learn and practice vocabulary words using four modes of gameplay: image, definition, sentence, and synonym. They have a love-based-learning experience.
Zinc offers vocabulary in-context accompanying our articles, and we have stand-alone vocabulary sets that use spaced repetition.
