Reading Records are a great communication tool between home and school. They are a good way to track reading but they do have some limitations - for instance, traditional paper-based reading records are frequently lost or forgotten and can be expensive to replace. Pageticker is a digital reading record: it maintains better quality data, but also does so much more.
Pageticker is a reading-for-pleasure community app for schools, created by teachers. It creates seamless communication between parents and teachers, with an app for parents and a dashboard for teachers. Teachers can log, share and celebrate reading progress; they can discover exciting and relevant books to recommend to their students; they can gain valuable insights into their school’s reading habits.
As an example of the better quality data we can gather, our platform supports parents in understanding and recording reading accuracy, reading rate, expression and comprehension. We are dedicated to educating parents to support their child’s reading journey. We regularly update our blog and knowledge hub sections of the website, to make sure that we can support parents with the most up-to-date guidance.
For teachers, our dashboard will allow teachers to view the reading for their class at a glance, including identifying pupils who haven’t read recently. It will allow teachers to react to reading and comments, as well as making their own. It will allow teachers to nudge parents to record, as well as sending messages to the whole class, at the click of a button.
Our book discovery capabilities will help teachers to recommend exciting books to pupils which are relevant to their age, reading level and interests, supporting teachers to create a reading for pleasure community in their classrooms.
This is just the beginning of the community and capabilities we are looking to create. The app will be live in January 2025. If you would like to stay updated with news of our release, free trials and special offers, sign up here.
