Decodable story

Add up to 5 words to include in the generated story

May lives on a farm and grows grains like wheat and oats. Every day, she collects the grain and brings it to the big red barn. She lays it out in a thin layer on the floor of the barn to dry. On hot days, the grain will dry in less than a day.

On cooler days, it takes a bit longer. Once the grain is dry, May scoops it into pails and brings it to the bins in the barn. She slowly dumps each pail into a bin so no grain falls away. When all the bins are full, May collects more grain in her trailer.

She takes it to town on the main road to sell. The people in town wait for May every day. They love the fresh grain she brings!

Individualized Decodables and Tutoring

We create decodables based on a student’s exact reading level and previous errors. Our AI tutor then gives live feedback and encouragement to each student as they read out loud. This combination gives you the superpower to teach reading to each child in your class one on one.

Available to all

Built by teachers and AI experts from Stanford, Project Read is an ambitious effort to make personalized reading support accessible for all kids, regardless of income. Accessible in browsers on mobile, tablet or desktop.

Standards aligned

Project Read is aligned to support students across a variety of Science of Reading curricula.

The Simple View of Reading conveys how reading comprehension (RC) is the product of decoding (D) and language comprehension (LC). Project Read’s AI Decodable Generator and AI Tutor provide students with practice and support in improving their ability to decode (D).

The Decodable Generator allows me to get a decodable for the phonics skill I want in seconds. I use the PDFs to differentiate for my small groups and kids love the fun pictures included in their stories. I also have a lot of students whose guardians don’t speak English. The AI Tutor is an incredible resource at home for them.

Just over the course of a week with my students using Project Read’s AI Tutor, I saw students who struggled with decoding over the course of the school year grow more confident and more accurate in their decoding. With Project Read, if a student missed a word when reading a sentence, the AI Tutor listens and responds with phonics intervention.
