“As a special education teacher I was extremely frustrated when my son, who has dyslexia and ADHD, still could not read when he finished 2nd grade. He had been through every reading program the school gave him, from Fundations, a program by the Wilson Reading Program to Great Leaps and others. When I tried to sit with him at home to teach him, I could not keep his attention and each session ended in tears. When he started the Strong Learning SuperDecks in a summer program before third grade, he started to read. He LOVED the games. Because he played them over and over again!”

Strong Learning Game-Based Learning Resources has been a game-changer for The Compass school. The students love playing the games, and they’re actually practicing their reading skills without even realizing it. The resources integrate with any curriculum aligned with the Science of Reading and we highly recommend them to any school that is looking to improve their students’ decoding skills.

“As a remedial reading teacher for K-5 I’m always looking for a program that will help my students improve in reading. I finally found the program, the Strong Learning Reading Intervention Program. My students absolutely love Tiger, his family, his pet dog and frog, and every lesson. That’s because the program is based on playing games and being in plays. It’s no surprise that their reading is improving! This program combines the highest educational standards with fun. When students are having fun, they stay engaged. Without realizing it, they’re practicing and practicing through play.”

Resources for Every Stage of Reading Development
Game-Based Reading Instruction With Practice That Reinforces Every Skill
SuperDeckTM card games and their corresponding Practice Packs work together to provide unlimited, engaging practice in phonics, fluency, reading, and writing.
Students first build and strengthen reading skills through familiar card games such as Memory, Go Fish, and other easy-to-learn games. Because the practice feels like play, students are often more willing to participate, stay focused, and keep practicing, especially those who may feel anxious or discouraged about reading.
Build foundational decoding skills through engaging card games.
Develop automatic word recognition and reading confidence.
Master increasingly complex phonics patterns and word analysis.
Strengthen fluency, vocabulary and comprehension.
Designed to make teaching easier.
Each SuperDeck has a corresponding Practice Pack that gives students additional opportunities to apply the same skills through reading and writing activities they enjoy, including Word finds, Crossword puzzles, Word games, Writing activities and more.
Every Practice Pack page includes clear directions at the bottom, so teachers can quickly select and print the pages they need for that day’s lesson.
Perfect for:
- Reading intervention
- Small-group instruction
- Literacy centers
- One-on-one tutoring
- Independent practice
- Homework or home reinforcement
Together, SuperDecks and Practice Packs provide extensive practice without relying on repetitive worksheets alone.
