LESA uses gamification to spark children's interest and create a positive connection with reading. For instance, kids can climb levels, choose their favorite character from LESA to play, and get rewards by accessing the 'playground' after reading. Doesn't that sound fun?

With digital technology, we get the opportunity to dive into detailed statistics about reading within the school community. We can analyze things like natural reading speed, reading comprehension, enjoyment of reading, and continuity statistics. Plus, we'll provide comparisons to kids who are at a similar reading level. How exciting is that?
