Hello I'm a 6th grade reading plus user,and I have a few things that a dislike, 1.Please get more books of our interests(if you can can you find real books)
2.I dislike how it's 80 and above is it possible if you can make it 75% and above bc I always get a 78% so I always get put on hold and it gets me tin of stress.
3.Please make more re-reads bc in real test with passages and other sites I use you can go back to the passage.
Please make some changes try to make it fun
This is the most ASSassin website ever. It truly sucks. I burnt my eyes and I am blind now because on assignment made me look at the sun during the solar eclipse. Now I am blind and I can't be my life long goal of being a throat goat,
This is insulting, there is disinformation and doesn't teach reading in a good way. There is something in it called g-rate (guide rate) where it has a set window of where you can read that is not complimentary to readers who read a certain way other than theirs which isn't as efficient as most other advanced reading techniques. About propaganda, they would give percentages to data without giving any relevant information on why the data portrays the way they portray it.
This website doesn't let me read something I like, instead some boring things about mosquitoes and stuff like that. Second, this thing call Visual Skills is just a some junk. This is for kids, right? Nothing is fun in Reading plus, and they just be nice so you can give them more money! Kids won't like this at ALL.
My school makes me do this all the time. What is the point of this? Can't we just do normal Comprehension? Also, when a book is really boring (which happens often) you can't get off it. You are literally forced to read it! That is really dumb. You're really trying to get people's money. This app sucks so bad that I'm going to rate it 1/5. Would not recommend.
I feel that reading out is not suitable for children as someone who has had to do it before it has been nothing but dreadful forced to finish it or detention at one point it even made me want to commit suicide because the amount of stress I faced I do not recommend this app for parents
I abolutley hate reading plus it's horrendous. I hope the creator goes to h£ll this website is shocking and the books are horrible also why do they think a row of profile pictures is gonna make me happy when I level up how about some good books instead. Honestly this website is a discards and to anybody who has to use this at school like me I feel sorry for you but hopefully we stop using it in secondary school because it makes me feel $u*(*d@|. Zero stars!
Apparently my regular reading speed is too fast for reading plus to handle. Also has a super limited selection of short stories from outdated authors who cant even write an interesting paragraph. Would not recommend
The stories are boring and when u get halfway through you cant go back so your stuck reading that story until you finish the comprehension questions, overall reading plus is not a good website but schools still use it anyways.
Reading plus has no place in education. We could be reading real books, written by actually good authors. These "Stories" sound like they where written by robots. No real person writes or speaks in the language patterns these books use. They are boring and tedious to read, a great way to ruin an English lesson or make kids further hate home work. How teachers think this bland drivel is education I do not know. So in short, its $#*!
This app is actually the zearn for reading with that ill give you a boost $#*!. I swear to $#*!ing god. I have actually had so much bruises from punching myself because of these two apps. I wanna $#*!ing kill mark taylor im coming to your house right now.
Presumably because they are determined to get their money's worth for this waste of school budget, the school tries to make us do this with my son almost every day. It is an ongoing source of conflict with his teacher because I insist that he reads real books instead.
Frankly, teachers objecting to proper literature at home instead of this brain rotting trash is a bit like if they tried to make us feed him candy in place of vegetables.
I hate this website so much it just causes may too much stress. The worst thing is the fact that you have to do MORE reading plus if you get under 80%. Its absolutely horrible and I want this website to be gone :(( (
My child does reading plus and she hates along with 100 other students and complaints
The children face. I am a teacher and I hate how the children respond to this program. It must shut down immediately!
Reading plus is an app we use in my school and its just simply terrible. You are made to read a story that that doesn't even make any sense at all but you are ALSO expected to answer 10 questions at the end! I really wish that I could give this app 0 stars. Sometimes when I'm trying to press on the right answer if doesn't let me press it to confirm my answer which can be really annoying! Definitely would NOT recommend this app to anyone.
So reading plus, is really annoying. Sometimes it says you are reading too fast when it is your natural rate! Also the books do not educate anyone in my class that much. The only reason why we're doing this is so that we don't get an A+ to a damn F.
I have 6 assignments per week it is a waste of my time and when i have two days of school because the other days i am having thank giving break she assigns it they really pay to make kids miserable i would rather watch paint dry than do reading plus.
Reading plus is the worst thing that has happened to mankind. I wake up, thinking, "today will be a good day!" and then i realise that we have to do reading plus. Basically, if school wasnt enough torture already, reading plus makes it 10x worse.
You can't do anything once you're on hold, but it should see how fast you read multiple times, and not once, so that it doesn't put you "on hold" if you slightly improve. Reading plus needs to go away. FOREVER!
Stupid site which has half the words spelt wrong because a bunch of burger eating twats made the site I would rather shove the cold barrel of a shotgun down my throat then do anything on this god forsaken site.
I got put in a mental institution because i lost my mind over this gut wrenching horrendous website. My teacher did a mortal combat fatality for not doing my 5 story's which are the most useless texts ever they make my eyes bleed this app makes me want to kill my self and school shooting when i am on this app i want a shooter to come into my class and I would thank him

Hello Ellen,
We are so sorry to hear about the ongoing conflict with your school about the requirements they have set regarding usage of Reading Plus. We are a supplemental program and provide a recommended number of assignments based on the students initial assessment and ongoing performance; teachers are at the helm and have the ability to edit the number of assignments.
Teachers find Reading Plus useful at identifying specific skill deficiencies and providing targeted instruction in those areas; the goal is to use the information gathered from online instruction to then turnkey for offline skills practice and application to literature of all kinds.
Again, we wish there were no conflict with your son's teacher regarding Reading Plus. We do invite you to speak to myself or a team member that works in your community to help address your concerns. Feel free to email us at community@readingplus.com and we will connect with you to discuss further.
Thank you.
