GamifiedParents Part of the Story

FamilyData Teachers Actually Use

School-ReadyComics Build Vocabulary Faster Than Traditional Books
Research from the University of Oregon found that comic books contain 53.5 rare words per 1,000 — nearly double the count in children's chapter books (30.9). Comics don't simplify the language children encounter. They expand it.
- –Comprehension scores equal to or higher than traditional text (Jennings et al., 2014)
- –95% literacy success using illustrated materials — U.S. Army training programmes, WWII
- –Measurably increases student motivation and enjoyment of reading
