Store description excerpt

Kahoot! Learn to Read by Poio makes it possible for kids to learn to read on their own. This award-winning learning app has taught over 100,000 children how to read by giving them the phonics training they need to recognise letters and their sounds, so that they can read new words. **REQUIRES A SUBSCRIPTION** Access to the contents and functionality of this app requires a subscription to Kahoot! Kids. The Kahoot! Kids subscription gives your family access to premium Kahoot! features and 3 award-winning learning apps for math and reading. HOW THE GAME WORKS Kahoot! Poio Read takes your child on an adventure where they have to master phonics to save the Readlings. Letters and their corresponding sounds are gradually introduced as your child explores the world, and your child will use these sounds to read bigger and bigger words. The game will adapt to the child's level and every word they master will be added to a fairy-tale story, so that the child feels like they are writing the story themselves. The goal is for your child to be able to show of their newfound skills by reading the story to you, their siblings or impressed grandparents. REVIEWS “She astounded us with being able to read the story” — Grandmother to Ann (3) «With Poio, my sons now nag to practise reading» — dad to Noah (4) and James (6). «Unlike other apps we had used before, Poio showed the user letter and sounds in a wide variety of different formats – as letters, words and in sentences and within multiple different scenarios in the game.» — Victoria Galligan, QA Education Magazine THE POIO METHOD Kahoot!

It’s empty when your child starts playing. However, as the game unfolds, it will fill up with words and unravel the mysteries of the fantasy world. #2 THE READLINGS Readlings are cute bugs who eat alphabet letters. They are very picky about what they like, and have different personalities. The child controls them all! #3 A TROLL Poio, the main character of the game, catches the cute Readlings. He needs their help to read the book he has stolen from them. As they collected words at each level, children will spell them out in order to read the book. #4 STRAW ISLAND The troll and the Readlings live on an island, in the forest, a desert valley and a winter land.
