The original game has done amazing things, helping millions of children learn to read. But over the years, we’ve also gathered a huge amount of feedback, research and ideas. We’ve worked closely with teachers, literacy experts and families, and learned a lot about how children learn to read, what teachers need, what really works (and what doesn’t). The original Teach Your Monster to Read was built using technology that's 14 years old - the new one will give us the flexibility to keep improving the game, add new features more easily, and ensure it's ready for the next generation of learners.
Here are our top benefits of rebuilding Teach Your Monster to Read:
Building a next-generation reading game that's ready for the next ten years of learners.
Adaptive gameplay that responds to each child's progress.
Better support for children learning to read in the US as well as the UK.
Bringing in the latest research on how children learn to read.
Developing the game with our users and responding more quickly to feedback.
Making the game more accessible and inclusive for every child.
Encouraging independent play and healthy screen time habits.
Adding better ways to measure impact, so we can understand what's working and keep improving.
Creating a more flexible platform so we can introduce new features, content and improvements much more quickly.
