What we make
Resources for four teacher jobs: plan and teach, assess and track, practise and play, and report. Most are available through direct product pages, where you can review the current licence and availability before checkout.
Our featured program is Milestone Reading. It is the checked Grades 3–5 reading comprehension program — diagnose, teach, practise, check — made by an Ontario Certified Teacher.
- 1. Diagnose: Free Quick Check. Seven questions, one short passage. Score A–D answers in your browser and see which skill to teach first.
- 2. Teach: A complete skill unit. A pre-check, five lessons, leveled passages, task cards and reteach cards built around the mistakes students actually make.
- 3. Practise: Mystery Picture games. Self-checking Google Sheets games: each right answer uncovers part of a picture, in your own Google account.
- 4. Check: The Reading Skills Check. One check across seven skills in two forms, with a Google Sheets planner that groups your class by next step.

We also publish free teaching guides, including plain-language explainers of Ontario policy changes, on the guides page.
How we check Milestone Reading
These specific checks describe our Reading Skills units. For other resources, look inside the current listing to see exactly what is included.
- Every answer key recomputed: A script re-derives each printed answer from the unit's source data. If a key and a question disagree, the check fails and the unit goes back for a fix.
- Tested for answer patterns: Keys are tested for letter runs, repeating cycles, “longest answer” tells, card-sort positions and a second form that copies the first.
- Questions that need the passage: Questions are tried without the passage. If a Grade 3–5 student could answer it from general knowledge or a wording tell, it is rewritten.
- Facts traced to the source page: Every factual claim in a passage is checked against the opened source page, and the supporting quote is kept on file.
