Whooo's Reading Program

  • The Whooo's Reading Program is designed to assess student reading comprehension, as well as provide students with an opportunity to practice their writing skills. Aligned with State Standards (TEKS), the program asks multiple choice questions as well as open ended questions that require students to construct a response. Students can read any book and take a Whooo's Reading test on that title. The program provides students feedback on their answers with a chance to improve their response before submitting a final answer. Accessibility features such as speech to text and text to speech are available, along with the ability to differentiate by setting different levels of questioning for each student. Some advanced features are available with a paid subscription, but all teachers have the ability to register their classroom students for free. If you are interested in allowing your students to participate in the Whooo's Reading Program, please visit the site below to get started and if you have any questions, please contact Shelli Harrel at harrels@gladewaterisd.com.

What is Whooo's Reading?

  • Whooo's Reading is a program designed to assess student reading comprehension, as well as writing skills. At the conclusion of reading a text (book, story, article, etc.) students are asked to complete a test containing a combination of multiple choice and open ended questions pertaining to the content. When students successfully complete a test, they will earn a specific number of coins. If they submit answers that are in need of adjustment (spelling errors, grammatical errors, missing information, etc.) they are given an opportunity to correct these issues in order to earn more coins. These coins can then be used to purchase items for their Whooo's Reading Owl Avatar. At the end of each test, students are provided feedback pertaining to the areas where they excelled and the areas where improvement is needed.
