ReadWorks is a nonprofit edtech organization that provides research-based K–12 reading comprehension resources to teachers and students.
ReadWorks offers a digital library of literary and informational texts, reading passages, book studies, decodable texts, and paired texts in English and Spanish, along with instructional routines such as Article-A-Day and student supports including vocabulary activities, graphic organizers, and comprehension question sets. Its resources are built around the science of reading to help students build background knowledge, vocabulary, and strategic reading skills, and they include differentiation, automated grading, and data dashboards for teachers.
The platform is free for teachers and students and is used by K–12 classrooms, schools, and school districts, with content licensed to other education providers and organizations through a licensing program and a shop. It competes in the K–12 educational content and literacy software market, positioned as a research-backed nonprofit alternative to commercial curriculum and reading intervention products.
