its making everything harder for kids to read and answer
By Rebecca
Very poor and lacks quality. To be honest it feels just tiring and unnecessary. It feels very annoying. I don't know why they actually added this. This boots. It's one of the most annoying things of all time. If there was one thing I could take away, it would be this: school. It's like a fart. Imagine somebody farted 10 times on your head. It feels like an utter waste of time and you question why you're actually doing it. The only reason is that there is punishment if not. Schools have a perfect way to torture outside of school and when you're in school they torture you anyway. I hope there is a special place in hell f

Sparx Reader is absolutely terrible. Lazy teaching from lazy teachers. Terrible stories, takes too long and disengages students. PUT MORE EFFORT IN TEACHERS. STOP BEING LAZY - YOU ONLY HAVE TO WORK 39 WEEKS !!!! LEAD BY EXAMPLE AND PUT MORE EFFORT INTO OUR CHILDREN - STOP USING LAZY ONLINE HOMEWORK

rubish, asks questions mid way through the book, asks you to rate the book basicly EVERY PAGE and it gives you options of like 5 books they all suck

This is properly the worst homework website i have ever used i have been using it for around 2 years now and have given it a fare shear of chances it's question design is horrible for example if a character dies in the story it wont ask you what character died it will most likely ask you what colour there HAIR was which is not relevant to the story and Im am not going to remember if somebody's hair is red, blond, brown or ginger

This site is genuinely horrible. Just to complete the goal you need photographic memory otherwise you won't do well. It says energy, ruins the fun of reading and it feels like it penalises you for not knowing something from 3 chapters ago.

This website punishes children who are confident readers who know their tastes by forcing them to read low quality books. All stick, no carrot.

It's Horrible, and makes people not want to read. THe system that gives more points for being slower forces fast readers to slow down even if they are better at reading quickly, and if you take too long you get less points forcing slow readers to rush.
