SmartyAnts
Product Details
- Overview
-
Smarty Ants is a game-based foundational-literacy program now associated with McGraw Hill’s Achieve3000 portfolio. It is designed primarily for preschool through early-elementary learners, including developing and multilingual readers, with young students, classroom teachers, reading specialists, and families using it to support phonological awareness, phonics, word recognition, fluency, vocabulary, and early comprehension.
Students progress through animated lessons, songs, stories, and practice while educators review early-literacy performance and usage. The product should be evaluated for the specific learners, instructional setting, and intensity of support a district intends—not simply as another source of digital activities.
