Foundational Literacy
Research shows that early learning is fundamental to student success over time. That’s why it’s so important to provide young learners with the strategies they need to take on the challenges of early literacy growth. Achieve3000's Smarty Ants does just that. It’s our research-driven solution for foundational literacy instruction that puts your young learners on the path to college and career literacy.
Making Reading Fun
Smarty Ants is designed to build reading skills and accelerate learning in an engaging, interactive online learning environment. Students learn through fun, animated game-like activities. They even have their own personal ant “coach” to guide and instruct them while providing kind and motivating feedback along the way.
From Emergent to Independent Reader
With Smarty Ants, students learn more than surface-level phonemic awareness and phonics. They dive deep and master foundational reading skills through Smarty Ants' complete scope and sequence. From letter identification and the alphabetic principle to structural analysis and comprehension skills, Smarty Ants transforms emergent readers into independent readers.
The Perfect Mix for Early Learners
Smarty Ants combines foundational skills instruction, independent practice, and embedded assessment in a single program with robust teacher supports. Students master complex phonics skills as they learn to decode and encode phonemes and words and eventually read stories. Through skill-building games and activities, students learn approximately 1,500 vocabulary words plus essential sight words.
