“Unlock Your Child’s Potential”

K5 Learning is a personalized online learning program for Math and Reading enrichment.  Just as the name indicates, it is structured to meet the needs of those in grades K thru 5.
It it 4 programs in one and works on the areas of Reading, Spelling (and Vocabulary), Math, and Math Facts.  
This is a breakdown of what you can expect in each area:
 Reading helps kids become strong readers and develop a love of reading. This award-winning program covers phonemic awareness, phonics, sight words, vocabulary and reading comprehension.
 Spelling is an advanced vocabulary program which improves language skills one word at a time. We feature adaptive instruction, automatic word generation, an optimized visual interface, and a 150,000+ word database.

 Math is an award-winning program which builds self confidence and a deep understanding of math concepts. K5 Math covers numbers and operations, geometry, measurement (including time and money), algebraic thinking and data analysis.
 Math Facts uses adaptive technology to help kids develop instant recall of basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts. Progress on each and every math fact is monitored until mastery is obtained.

This is what a 'results' screen would look like:


Lessons are assessment based; not generated only by academic grade level.  If a child struggles in an area, K5 will adjust the curriculum to meet the child’s needs. I also found it helpful that the speed could be adjusted for the math facts screen- not too fast and not too slow. It is 100% web-based and available to work in 24/7.
