Support Reading Skills

Quindew's reading process is designed to improve students' reading comprehension skills.

Students can participate in Quests 2-3 times a week, giving them a good amount of reading practice each week. Quindew's reading lessons differentiate and enhance reading instruction for all students.

Weekly Reading Practice

Reading Assessments

Diagnostic Reading Assessment

Quindew evaluates students' reading ability while they rehearse critical deep reading comprehension skills. After completing 12 Quests (or the first Season), Quindew generates a diagnostic report. The data is used to create a unique learning path for each student, ensuring everyone receives the support they need. No time is lost, learning continues, and teachers and school leaders gain access to reliable reading data!

Growth Reading Assessments

Growth assessments formatively assess how students are progressing throughout the year. Students take two Growth assessments each Season, totaling 10 benchmark assessments each school year.

Mastery Reading Assessments

At the end of each Season, students take a Mastery assessment. This Mastery assessment measures students' growth during a Season. Students can take 5 Mastery assessments each year. On average, students grow .38 grade levels each Season.

Students and Teachers love it!

Students log in to Quindew and they are immediately engaged in the reading process. I've been looking for an online tool that quickly assesses students' reading ability. Quindew gets it done in minutes.”

- Jose, California

My kids groan when I ask them to complete tasks on other reading programs. Not Quindew. They are genuinely excited to work on Quindew lessons. They like collecting badges and earning rewards like Blue Diamonds that they can use to buy things.”

- Meera, California

My kids love it. I love it because it teaches so many soft skills like perseverance, determination, and curiosity. I also like how Quindew teaches students to read directions carefully. Very pleased!”

Experience the Difference

Quindew assesses students while they engage in authentic reading practice. Instructional time is not lost to long, multi-day tests. In fact, the amount of time students spend close reading and critically thinking increases.

Our adaptive technology responds quickly to students' reading needs and can level up or down. Students do not hit a "performance ceiling."

Additionally, the reading process and close reading skills students learn in each Quest transfer to other subjects and reading tasks. This ensures students can use what they are learning on Quindew to help them read and write more effectively.

With the completion of each reading practice, Quindew delivers data that is clear and accurate. We don't use multiple choice questions. We don't like guessing.

We mimic explicit, classroom instruction and pedagogy, and students practice reading like they would in a classroom with a teacher. The best part, students have fun, teachers don't have to grade, and quality reading gets done!
