"DORA has really proven itself to both my administration and instructional teams. We are delighted with the ease with which multiple students can take the assessment at one time from a single computer lab, the access to current performance and longitudinal data, and the recommended instructional interventions. We are also very appreciative of the way the DORA performance data correlates to performance data we identify with individual administrations of Test of Word Recognition Efficiency (TOWRE), Gray Oral Reading Test (GORT), CSAP – Reading, and Scantron Performance Series – Reading. This tool is not only efficient but also effective in identifying and communicating students’ strengths and weaknesses in specific reading skill areas."
I recently began using Unique Reader Secondary with my fourth to sixth graders. I was so impressed with it for many reasons. First, the lessons are well thought out. They are sequenced in a way that makes sense developmentally, following along with a typical school curriculum. Second, the material is presented in a lively and interesting way. Kids are so often "turned off" to lessons. With Unique Reader Secondary, they can't wait to get started. Finally, as their teacher, Unique Reader Secondary allows me to see exactly what level each child is up to, and is thus easy to incorporate into our own curriculum. At our center, we work towards helping kids not only read at grade level, but towards helping them develop a love of reading. Unique Reader Secondary helps us accomplish our goals. I highly recommend it!!

"Let's Go Learn is an efficient, engaging, effective online set of tools that are essential in today's public school classroom. We must embrace Let's Go Learn's differentiated reading and math instruction line of products if we are to meet the No Child Left Behind challenges, and even more importantly, to make the process of acquiring literacy in English and math engaging and fun for all learners. I can't think of a more effective way to spend tax-payer's dollars than to invest in a subscription for each student in every classroom in the Los Angeles Unified School District."
