Corona Norco, CA8th Grade 90 minutes per day

In an independent study conducted by Gatti Associates, iLit students outperformed the control group in their overall GRADE™ scores and in sub-scores for Vocabulary, Total Comprehension, and Sentence Comprehension. The chart shows the difference in percentile gains of iLit students versus the control group.

Corona-Norco iLit teacher Krystan Robinson remarked, “It made it very easy to notice which kids were lacking vocabulary and which kids were doing really well. Programs like this make it a lot easier for the teacher to identify needs, and students are getting what they need in a more engaging and targeted way.”

In Melissa Crum’s grade 6 iLit classes in Anderson, students achieved multiple years of gains in reading comprehension a single year of iLit on GRADE™ assessment.

Indiana State Superintendent Glenda Ritz noted upon viewing iLit classes in Anderson: "Reading programs such as iLit engage the children so that they're doing active reading...actually doing more reading and getting excited about it. That's probably the best piece about this… [iLit] helps the teacher to be able to fully engage the kids and focus on various specific skills that they need to master as well. I noticed that it has great vocabulary building as it goes along, continually increasing vocabulary…”
