Why we’re different
The Learning Science behind StoryWorld:
Captivating images:
Stories with engaging visuals help learners acquire knowledge and results in improved reading and writing. (1)
Engaging narratives:
Stories light up our brains. They help children focus better, remember details more clearly, and understand concepts more deeply. (2)
Content-based learning:
Through a content-based approach to literacy, children are repeatedly exposed to new vocabulary in context, which promotes deeper understanding and retention. (3)
Audio supports:
Listening contributes strongly to phonological awareness — an essential early reading skill. (4)
StoryWorld works on all devices: laptops, tablets, and smart phones.
