Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right grade for my child?
Start with their school grade, then adjust by what they can actually read. If passages feel frustrating, step one grade down; if they finish everything easily, step up. Confidence grows fastest when most of a text is within reach.
What is included at each grade?
Every grade page bundles reading passages with comprehension questions, an online quiz and a printable worksheet, plus grammar and vocabulary practice matched to that grade, word games, and printable coloring pages.
I want reading practice for a 7-year-old (or any age) — where do I start?
Ages map roughly onto grades: a 7-year-old typically reads at Grade 1–2, a 10-year-old around Grade 4–5. Use the age as a starting point, try one passage, and adjust by ability — reading level matters more than the birthday.
We are not in the US school system — do grades still work for us?
Yes, but you may prefer the English reading levels, which describe text difficulty without any school-system labels. They draw on the same library, organized for learners of English anywhere.
Is it free to use?
