What is Lexia?

Lexia is a web enabled literacy programme that focuses on the essential reading skills of phonemic awareness, phonic’s, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension.

“Lexia Reading® encourages early reading success through the development of critical pre-reading and reading skills. The interactive, phonics-based activities reinforce sound-symbol correspondence and help develop automatic word recognition and comprehension. Activities include the application of reading strategies to single word phrases, sentences, paragraphs, and brief stories. The activity formats also encourage listening skills and following directions. Fun, age-appropriate activities introduce phonological principles and the alphabet — both proven predictors of reading success. An appealing, deliberately uncluttered interface focuses young students and allows them to easily learn to navigate activities on their own.”
