Frequently Asked Questions

How old should my child be to begin Hoot Reading?

Hoot Reading lessons are designed for children pre-school aged and showing an interest in learning, and up. Regardless of age, Hoot Reading Teachers will work with your child to assess their needs as a reader. Students of all ages may need support in decoding simple and multisyllabic words by strengthening their knowledge of sound-spelling correspondences in English, a language with a very complex spelling system. Alternatively or additionally, students may need to work on
their reading comprehension by bolstering their vocabularies, building their repertoire of
knowledge across topic areas, diving deeper into syntax and language structures, or improving their reading fluency to enable stronger text analysis. 

What kind of technical setup will my child need at home?

Students require a laptop, computer, or tablet, and a stable internet connection to access the Hoot Reading app. The device must have a camera, a microphone, and a speaker, and headphones are recommended to help minimize distractions during the lesson. 

What is Hoot Reading's curriculum?

Hoot Reading uses an evidence-based teaching model to provide reading instruction
to students that aligns with a Structured Literacy approach. Structured Literacy is the
instructional application of the large body of research commonly referred to as the Science of
Reading, which focuses instruction in the two key areas of reading development; word-level reading (decoding) and language comprehension.
