Often called a “specialist approach for non-specialists”, StepsWeb is an ideal resource for home schoolers for its adaptive research-based capability and ease-of-use. It provides you with a stuctured literacy progression suitable for both struggling and extension learners.
Home Schoolers should sign up as a Home Account, not a School Account.
A Home Account provides everything you need to support your child's literacy journey at a cost designed for individual families.
The main Course follows a structured literacy progression that aligns with each student's pace and level. There is an initial Spelling Placement Test, which analyses your child’s literacy knowledge and puts them on the right level of this course.
Your child will then automatically progress through each level, developing the core skills needed for:
Most learners can progress through the online structured Course independently, completing engaging activities which are aligned with their literacy level. For those that can't, StepsWeb provides extensive feedback to help quickly identify gaps. Our Assigned Work feature is ideal for providing additional practice and/or supporting your own materials.
While StepsWeb is designed for self-directed learning, we recommend that parents and/or educators monitor progress to quickly identify gaps, and provide additional reinforcement when necessary.
Watch our Essential Core Skills videos on the Parent Welcome Screen to familiarise yourself with all StepsWeb has to offer.
StepsWeb will assign your learner a certain number of weekly goals. Ensure your child mets these goals for optimal results.
Regularly review your child’s logs from the Parent login to identify areas needing reinforcement and address errors fast.
Reward hard work by utilising StepsWeb’s certificates and medals to motivate and encourage learners.
While not always necessary, incorporating StepsWeb’s printable resources and workbooks to practice and vary the learning experience can be incredibly beneficial for many learners.
StepsWeb makes it easy to track your child’s literacy progress with automatically generated reports and real-time insights. This includes information which tells you:
While the Course will provide tailored reinforcement automatically, our built-in wordlists can be assigned on top of their Course work, creating a great opportunity for targeted practice and reinforcement.
StepsWeb offers hundreds of built-in wordlists covering various topics and skills. Parents can assign these lists to learners at their discretion, providing targeted practice to reinforce specific areas.
Printable wordsheets are automatically generated for every wordlist at every level, allowing you to quickly download and provide materials that align with your learner’s literacy level.
These resources offer additional practice opportunities and support diverse learning preferences.
StepsWeb workbooks are ideal for providing additional support for struggling students. Our workbooks align with the StepsWeb online Course Levels and can be purchased from the StepsWeb Store on your Parent Login.
Our selection of workbooks and hands-on resources are perfect for reinforcing literacy skills, helping children who learn best through practical and one-on-one activities.
“Wow, StepsWeb is awesome! Our son has just been diagnosed with severe dyslexia, this is the first programme I have seen that seems to really get how dyslexics think and what they need. So helpful to have things like days of the week and the memory training. Well done, and thank you!”
Claire Wards, Parent
"My son is 9 and dyslexic, he uses StepsWeb every day, and the workbooks that go with it. It was recommended to us by a learning support teacher at his school.
At times he finds it challenging but he is able to use it by himself now. It is very well structured and organised. I can see that his writing and spelling are improving so it is well worth the price."
Charlotte, Parent
"This is an amazing program for children who are experiencing difficulty with spelling and learning to read. The program is intuitive and easy to navigate making it easy for a child use independently.
Whilst the activities are game based and engaging there are no nasty pop ups or side bar activities to distract children. I have seen amazing results with the students I tutor. I highly recommend this program to parents, teachers and tutors."
