Read with Ello

I started using this app for my 6 year old who just started 1st grade and tested “high risk” at the beginning of this year. This book has really helped with fluency. I have another reading app we use with this one that is great at working on blending but not so much fluency. That combo of the two apps is great. Since my 6 year old tested behind, I decided to start early on my 4 year old. That of course is way harder than my other son because he does not know all of the letter sounds yet. I also have him on the other app, but this one he has taken to so much better. He loves to tap the word and have Ello help. The only downside for this is my older son is outcome driven and likes to see his reading rate increase. I don’t understand why you have to wait overnight to see a change. I wish the app let you test their reading rate on demand so you can really assess where they are as that’s how the schools do it, a moment in time assessment.
