Accuracy
Fluency (WPM)
In just 5 weeks of using BuddyBooks 3 times per week at summer school programs for underserved communities, the worst readers increased their accuracy by 9% and improved fluency by 11 WCPM.
Daily Reading Practice is the Missing Piece
Research shows 15–20 minutes of oral-reading practice is the sweet spot— and the more frequently students do it, the greater their gains.
​
Most schools have great teachers, supportive parents and great curriculum — but no scalable practice tool.
BuddyBooks engages students so they willingly complete their reading-practice goals—no extra teacher micromanagement required.
