Free Reading Program

The Free Reading Program is a professionally designed, comprehensive, FREE TO USE, Kindergarten to Grade 6 online English Literacy Program. It includes over 260 Learning Units which encompasses 3600 interactive learning activities. It is designed to instill confidence, it includes audio, visual and tactile elements based on leading educational research and proven teaching techniques. If your child enjoys using the computer, why not ensure it is time well spent!

How It Works

The system enables children to have full access without providing personal info (such as an email address).  We do this by enabling a parent / guardian / teacher / leader to first create a “classroom”, within which children can be registered. The first time someone clicks on the link to access the Reading Program at the end of this webpage, they see a screen inviting them to create an account.  To do that they provide their email and a password, and they then confirm that new account through a confirmation email which they are immediately sent. A classroom can be just for your own child or children.

When someone creates an account  they are creating a “Classroom”.  Within that classroom, they can create / add as many “students” as they would like – including themselves. All students have their own unique identity and have access to the entire Free Reading Program. Each student therefore does not need to create a separate account – they login in through their leader / teacher / parent / guardian account to the classroom. Once in the classroom they click their name to access their Free Reading Program identity. All these students remain private and are only known to the leader and others in their classroom. In this way, youngsters don’t need to have an email address to create an account or provide any personal information to use the system. 

Here are some examples:

Example 1. Parent with child(ren):

The parent creates an account using their email address and a simple password. They now have their own classroom. The parent then adds each child as a student in the classroom. When their child wants to use the Free Reading Program, the parent clicks on the Free Reading Program logo on your website or our Campus link and logs in using their account, and then the student can click on their student name to access their own Free Reading Program identity.

Example 2. After School Program:

The leader of the program creates an account using an email address and an easy to remember password. They now have their own classroom. The leader then adds each program participant as a unique “student” to the classroom. When any of those students want to use the Free Reading Program, they log in using the leader’s account, and then they click on their student name to access their own Free Reading Program (FRP) session. The leader can easily support each student by logging into that student’s FRP session and seeing how they are progressing and if there are areas that need work.

Free Online Reading Program

Quindew's mission is to develop the technical skills of reading through a free and fun reading program. Quindew's reading program boosts students' confidence and explicitly teaches deep reading comprehension skills. Kids love it and teachers appreciate the challenging reading lessons. You can't cut free and you can't argue with fun.

Free Online Reading Program

Our fun online reading program is absolutely free, forever! It’s true! Our mission is to deliver excellent reading instruction and practice directly to kids regardless of school budgets.

Reading is personal, it's technical, and it requires practice. As students progress through the grade levels and text complexity increases, students need continuous, authentic reading practice that targets reading comprehension skills.

When students Quindew, thinking and the application of reading skills is required. Instead of selecting a correct answer, students identify and mark text-evidence, purposefully reread a passage deepening comprehension with each read, and think critically about the information they are reading.  

Reading with Quindew is fun and engaging. Students love their second chance opportunities, personal reading goals, and badges and game currency. Our skill-based pedagogy and teaching methods ensure students' minds stay on throughout the learning process which helps them build skills and confidence.

How to read books for free on Android and iOS

January 30, 2021LikbezTechnology

There are at least five different ways.

1. Applications of major services (only classics available)

Major book services not only distribute books for money, but also provide free and legal access to classics. To start reading, just install the desired application on your smartphone and find the book you are interested in in its catalog. After downloading it to your device, you can read without an Internet connection.

Cross-platform applications of services such as Bookmate, LitRes (Read books online) and MyBook are at your service. According to official information, their libraries contain 50,000, 32,000 and 27,000 free texts, respectively.

Bookmate and MyBook allow you to read books only inside their programs. Against this background, LitRes has an advantage. So, you can select a book in the Read Books Online app and export it to any third-party reader. Almost every book on LitRes is available in several formats: FB * 2, ePub, PDF and others.

Google and Apple branded stores contain a variety of books, many of which are available for free. These are mainly classical works, as well as books by independent authors, but sometimes there are also popular novelties. Most of the content on Apple Books is in English. Google Play Books has a lot of literature, comics, textbooks and audiobooks in Russian.

To read, you need to install the official application on your smartphone.

3. "Read Free" application

This is another LitRes application, but available only on the Android platform. The program catalog contains more than 50,000 free books, including modern fiction and non-fiction. In "Read for free" you will find both texts by domestic authors and translated books by foreign writers.

Texts are monetized by showing ads, so be prepared to be distracted from reading by annoying ads. But if you're a master at concentration, you can give the program a try.

We also note that the range of the application does not include many popular texts that can be bought in offline stores or obtained from paid Bookmate, LitRes and MyBook catalogs.

4. Free online libraries

In addition to paid services, there are online libraries where you can read books for free and completely legally. As a rule, the choice there is not so great, especially for literary novelties. However, you can always find something interesting. Here are some popular libraries:

  • Samolit is a library with works by independent and emerging writers. Books are available for free, but there is an opportunity to thank the authors you like.
  • TarraNova is an archive of foreign books that are provided personally by the authors and translators or with their permission.
  • Project Gutenberg is a well-known library of the eponymous project for the preservation of works of world literature that are in the public domain. Books are available in various formats in English and other foreign languages.
  • Bookz.ru - a large library of regular and audio books, where in addition to the classics there are modern works. Many books can be downloaded for free, but there are also paid ones.

5. "LitRes Library"

The service of the same name from "LitRes" allows you to legally and free of charge read any e-books from the catalog with a local library subscription. To do this, you need to issue a library card by contacting one of the nearest state libraries. By presenting your passport, you can get a login and password from your LitRes account in order to log in to the website or mobile application and read books at any time.

Some libraries issue a library card online. For example, in the Library of Foreign Literature at this link. If your local library is not connected to LitRes, ask the staff to write to [email protected] or do it yourself, indicating the contacts of the institution.

After registration in the catalog of books, in addition to the "Buy" button, there will be another one - "Take it from the library". Access to the work is issued for two weeks. You cannot extend the rental period, you can only request the book again. This works for both the text option and audiobooks. Copy protection does not allow you to simply download files to your device, you can only view them on the website or in the mobile application. In the latter case, offline reading is also available.
