Scholastic F.I.R.S.T. is an Android-based program designed to transform the way children learn to read. With its highly adaptive technology, Scholastic F.I.R.S.T. personalizes the path of each student to fluent reading by breaking down the reading process into thousands of micro-actions. The program is built on Dr. Kay MacPhee's proven, research-based concepts, leading with securing children's phonemic awareness while teaching phonological skills to ensure reading words becomes as effortless as speaking.

Scholastic F.I.R.S.T. offers meaningful reports filled with the richest and most impactful metrics, giving educators the tools they need to help meet their critical reading goals. The program is highly adaptive, providing immediate scaffolding, adaptations to pacing, and more complex interventions to support all students throughout their early reading journey. Scholastic F.I.R.S.T. is also designed to be equitable for outside-of-school access, allowing students to use the program anytime, anywhere, and on any device, continuing to make measurable progress on their own learn-to-read adventure.
