“WordForce has been FANTASTIC this year. Even my high-level students not only enjoyed it, but got a better understanding with larger words. I will be using WordForce next year as I LOVE the games and how it gives them practice they so desperately need.”

“I love that my students can work through the courses at their own pace, access the resource at home, and retake the tests. I also love the automatic reports and how easy it is to use the resources.”
