Now you can inspire every one of your students to learn to read.
Created with the guidance of an Advisory Board of the nation’s top educators, SmartyAnts is a unique teaching aid based upon proven educational research that shows children greatly increase their engagement and results when they’re able to select their own learning environment.
What is SmartyAnts?
It’s a revolutionary online world that perfectly enhances your learn-to-read lesson plan because it’s been scientifically designed to adapt and respond to a child’s individual personality and learning abilities.
“To us, the whole Smarty Ants program was very positive. It was fun and exciting for him, and for me also. It was just an enjoyable experience. It’s very easy for the kids to do on the computer. The graphics and the characters are also very upbeat and positive.” - Joan S.
It’s totally customized and personalized to each child – something you’d love to do, but could never practically do on your own…until now.
SmartyAnts encourages children with highly entertaining activities and positive reinforcements to learn to read at their own pace, so they’re always motivated, never bored and never left behind – they’re continually advancing. Most importantly, they’re having fun! All of which has been proven to help them learn to read faster and better – and build a lifelong love of learning.
