This was the most ridiculous thing ive ever seen, my teacher wants us to do it but ive been put on support ode which is calling me stupid. And right as im writing this reveiw its telling me im doing a great job! A REVEIW ISN'T A ESSAY READING PLUS, and its telling me how to right a better reveiw? Why? Reading plus im assuming your calling me stupid. I am so good at reading im honestly offended. I cannot belive this why you would ever do this to me, my feelings have been hurt by you therefore ive given you a 1 star.
This is the worst thing ever created. I don't think I hate anything more in life than reading plus. It should at least show me the definition after I get the word wrong instead of just feeling defeated. I hate my life so much more after getting off and the stories don't make any sense. The questions are so basic and not even thought-out. TRASH
Reading plus is bad. The stories that they provide are boring and then you have to answer questions, which makes less sense! The vocab is even worse! They give middle schoolers high school words and high schoolers words that people don't use in the real world!
I'm in 7th grade and my teachers assign me reading plus. My sister and I have always had trouble with it and we never get super good grades because of it. I used to be the best reader at my school and now I'm failing the very class I should be excelling in. It is because of reading plus because 1 NONE OF THE STORIES ARE INTERESTING! Last year I stayed up till at least 2 am trying to get all greens like what the flip?! I barely slept at all the night and I was super worried that I was gonna get in trouble. Please remove this app. All it does is cause pain and suffering to kids. All the kids at my school agree so uh yeah please remove this app thanks.
All the stories are so boring and we are forced to read them. It's that or a bad grade. I don't understand why can't we students just do regular REAL reading from a book.
This share no relation to the reader and the topic are sometimes very boring to the reader and that you have to do it every week
Reading Plus has tedious reading exercises that must be completed every week – or else students receive unsatisfactory grades from their teacher... Another major flaw in this reading program is that most of the stories students read are not very relatable, making them uninteresting to students. - Credit: Cavs Connect. On top of what Cavs Connect said, the ReadArounds give horrible definitions that make absolutely no sense and just cause confusion. The design of the website and the way it works just makes it worse
This $#*!ing website needs to be shut down. A very LAZY way to teach your students I didn't learn a single $#*!ing thing from this god forsaken website its just like Alex LAZY and poorly designed to the point where you don't learn $#*!. Conclusion rest in piss Reading Plus!
Even though the answers may be grammatically correct, if its not correct according to their standards it will mark the question wrong. Teaches incorrect grammar and usage of words on the website.
It´s a mess and a hard time to be in, am in 5th and wth the books are not even good! The proms are so hard and dumd and the bokks are dumd and they do and very very very very log books that are bad or useless only are a little good so any school just stop with this app because its bad.
Been doing readingplus for years (approximately 5th grade - 9th grade) and an honest review is that it wasn't what people would expect. First off there isn't much fun while in this website cuz it's mostly monochromatic and plain. Most of the stories read here are more like going through a treacherous journey, taking at least 1 hour to complete a story, then taking another 10 minutes for the questions, and if you forget the answer to a question, you have to reread which can take another 5-10 minutes again. The stories provided are lackluster, sure there's a whole variety of things to read, but the selections seem to be AI written and basic informative script. Also the stories can seem outright random with titles and stories that make no sense or look stupid and uninteresting. Barely any first person POV fiction stories or anything that would stand out to the average kid in school. Overall, it feels like being on the Moon, sluggish, low gravity, no atmosphere, no personality.
This website doesn't let me read something I like, instead some boring things about mosquitoes and stuff like that. Second, this thing call Visual Skills is just a some junk. This is for kids, right? Nothing is fun in Reading plus, and they just be nice so you can give them more money! Kids won't like this at ALL.
Reading plus is the most worst educational app or whatever I've ever came across. First of all the topics are boring AS FRICK, I don't want to learn how bread is history I want to learn about interesting topics like THE MOST DANGEROUS AND INTERESTING EXOPLANETS IN SPACE. And everything is so boring and it try's to be cool with "events" which is just extra torture. No topics are good and do not even think of getting this because I'm sure you've seen the reviews so reading plus, take your app off the store and shut your company down as its a waste of everything and I could yank shet out my but and it'll be more interesting then your apps topics. Also the website home page looks like it was made back in 2008 and if you look at my screenshots the topics are either stories that are all the same "once upon a time in a village" or whatever which are more boring that's watching paint dry or it's something like "how shoes are made" or "evolution of toilet paper" If you say reading plus is good just shut up you nerd And I hope you shut down forever reading plus because all you give is torture and I hope you all jump off a cliff.
My school makes me and do this and it's like misery i'm freaking dying when i do it. All of the people i know like my entire class and some other people from other classes HATE it. My aid teacher says that I have 2 more weeks left of school and that I wont have to do in 6th grade but I am still protesting for the fourth graders who will be inn 5th grade next year and will have to do THIS FREAKING APP. Sorry to hurt your feelings but its the truth no wonder you have 1.2 stars. Pls try to first get better and shorter books to read also in vocabs or vocabulary sometimes i press a word by accident and i get it wrong and then i cant go back so ya byeeee.
They give 5 assignments every week. They need to shorten it and they need to shut it down. They should stop kids from doing it. It is also $#*! $#*! everyone who likes it.
