Ignite! Reading is a brand that is dedicated to ensuring that every student becomes an independent reader by the start of second grade. They understand that every child deserves to read at grade level, and they are committed to helping them get there. Ignite! Reading takes the burden off teachers by providing personalized support for K-8th graders to help them learn the foundational skills they need to become independent readers.

Ignite! Reading pairs each student with a highly trained reading tutor who delivers virtual, face-to-face decoding and fluency instruction for 15 minutes a day. This one-on-one model allows students to practice significantly more than they can in a small group or class setting, building their confidence and readiness to learn. Their proven curriculum is grounded in research and focuses on areas such as phonological awareness, decoding, and word recognition.

Ignite! Reading uses baseline diagnostics, routine progress monitoring, and data-driven approaches to identify each student's specific decoding gaps and adapt instruction accordingly. The brand also provides dedicated literacy specialists who share student data monthly, ensuring that schools receive comprehensive program reports and can track the progress of their students.
