We’re proud to partner with Widgit to bring you a 6th Rockerbox reading level that uses Symbols to support text. Widgit Symbols are used worldwide to support people to realise their full potential, regardless of age, ability or background.
Sometimes, separating comprehension of a concept from decoding letters on a page can be just what a learner needs to start realising their full potential.
We’re proud to partner with Widgit to include their visual language of over 20,000 symbols (representing more than 55,000 English words) in a Rockerbox reading level available as an add-on to your Rockerbox News subscription.
Widgit symbols provide powerful communication aids in a variety of contexts, including:
- Empowering pre-verbal children
- Supporting speakers of English as an additional language
- Ensuring equal access to information
- Supporting vocabulary development across the curriculum
We select one article and its quiz questions each week to make available with Widgit symbols. That article also comes with a related functional text and physical activities that put new vocabulary and knowledge into action and show your pupils how empowering reading can be. Expect recipes, product reviews, instruction leaflets, and more!
We’d love to show you around our Jade reading level with Widgit Symbols. Book a demo with us now to see it for yourself.
Our Jade reading level with Widgit Symbols can be purchased as an add-on to a Rockerbox News subscription or is available as part of our Rockerbox Reading Ladders functional reading programme for special schools.
