The latest In Tandem study demonstrates measurable student growth. K–1 students using In Tandem as an intervention showed 1.5x more growth on average than their peers according to ELA i-Ready outcomes!

In Tandem strengthens phonics, fluency, and comprehension, building a strong foundation for beginning readers. 

Quickly identify your students’ strengths and gaps in phonics knowledge with our easy-to-use Phonics Reading Assessment. By pinpointing which phonics patterns students have mastered—and which need more practice—you can target instruction and accelerate reading growth.

You can run the assessment on two devices (phone + laptop) so students won’t see the scoring, keeping them focused. QR codes and links make setup easy!

At Pioneer Valley Books, our mission is to teach students how to read and inspire a lifelong love of reading through books that are both effective and engaging. Explore our collection of decodable books and bring the joy of learning to every reader.
