Imagine Language & Literacy PreK-2

If students are not logging in through Clever, they will go to my.imaginelearning.com to access this login screen.

When a student begins a benchmark test, they'll see this screen with accompanying audio saying, "This is a test. Do your best!"

Students will receive instruction, practice, review, and assessment within each lesson.

Phonological awareness, or the ability to perceive the sound units of words, is a critical component of effective early literacy instruction.

Before learning to read, students must learn letter names, sounds, and shapes.

These decoding skills are an essential component of early literacy development. Research confirms that a combination of phonological awareness training and systematic phonics instruction can improve young students’ early reading achievement

Imagine Language & Literacy provides many opportunities for shared-reading experiences. Through interactive activities like Listen and Read, students can hear and see books read out loud—much as they would in a shared reading experience at home or during storytime with their teachers. Before the books are read in Listen and Read, the narrator introduces new words and phrases that will be encountered during reading. The new words and phrases are shown on the screen as the narrator explains their meaning. Students participate in reading by clicking to turn the page, so they can move through the story at their own pace. Students can also click any word in the story to hear it repeated. Additional activities ask students to practice putting story events in order.

Imagine Language & Literacy makes it easy for educators to communicate with parents by first providing parent letters that describe Imagine Language & Literacy. This letter also describes ways parents can help continue their child’s literacy education at home. The program provides teachers with offline, skill-correlated worksheets and materials.

Numerous studies demonstrate that interventions designed to improve language development are an essential component of early literacy instruction. Research suggests that effective language development instruction includes explicit vocabulary instruction followed by opportunities to read or use new words in context. Imagine Language & Literacy focuses on language development and directly teaches more than 1,400 vocabulary words.

Student progress is monitored and teachers can access detailed reports that list vocabulary words that students have encountered. This data enables teachers to uniquely tailor classroom instruction to meet students’ individual needs. The program also provides additional vocabulary worksheets that can be used to extend learning opportunities as needed, as well as parent reports that list vocabulary words for parents to practice with their students at home.

Students have the opportunity to earn booster bits as they work through their activities inside of the program. With these booster bits they will be able to go to Imagine Museum to build a character, create cool exhibits, and unlock new features.

Students who have completed their assigned time will see the End of Session Screen. On this screen, they'll see how many activities, books, and words they learned during that session. A breakdown of Booster Bit totals is also presented.
