What is it?
An inspiring app promoting reading for pleasure! With over 150 extracts from stories, poems and non-fiction, the app offers a wealth of resources and interactive games!
The Reading Realm is a brand-new education iPad app for children, teachers and parents. Its purpose is to promote reading for pleasure, encourage children to widen their reading choices and provide a range of open-ended discussion guides and prompts to foster authentic, passionate book talk.
Each passage comes with a set of open-ended questions and prompts for children to discuss. There are also fun interactive games, allowing children to explore grammar, spelling and wordplay in context.
This five-star-rated app is perfect for class teachers who may wish to develop their teaching of whole-class reading or guided reading.
There are also quizzes, drama, art, geography and history activities to further deepen children’s understanding of what they are reading – brilliant for cross-curricular planning!
“The Reading Realm offers something very special,” says founder Ian Eagleton. “With the click of a button, children are given the opportunity to escape from the comfort of their chair, just for a little while, into a magical word where words shimmer, stories weave their magic, characters come to life and exciting, strange and new adventures await them.”
“High-quality extracts, spelling, vocab and grammar games as well as prompts to make children think about what they’ve read”
