This feature is designed to provide visual context to words, making it easier for students, especially English learners, to grasp new vocabulary and concepts. The Picture Dictionary is available for students to use at thier own convenience, offering a seamless learning experience.
Enhanced Student Analytics
Educators can now access even deeper insights into student performance with our enhanced Student Analytics. This feature allows for detailed tracking of student progress, helping teachers identify areas of strength and opportunities for targeted intervention, including targeting state standards. The data-driven approach empowers educators to tailor instruction to meet the individual needs of each student.
Reading Conference Portal for Progress Monitoring
The new Reading Conference Portal is a game-changer for progress monitoring. This tool facilitates regular reading conferences, enabling teachers to systematically track student growth and provide personalized feedback. The portal's intuitive design ensures that educators can easily document and review student progress over time, making it an invaluable resource for improving reading outcomes.
Meet Ari, the AI Reading Tutor

She is currently in the BETA stage, and will gradually improve through the course of the 2024-25 school year.
New Content Set for Gradual Release
Finally, AIR Language is excited to announce the gradual release of new content throughout the fall. This new material will include expanded reading passages that align with educational standards across all 50 states and internationally.
