Ziptales is an online literacy library, created by teachers, to advance a love of reading. It covers all levels from Preschool through to Grade 6.
Ziptales is directly aligned to the Australian National Curriculum, and has been shown to improve children’s love of reading, and to raise their skill levels. Its Reading Level Test can help recommend material that should provide your child with a ‘comfortable’ reading experience – not too simple, and not too challenging.
Over 500+ interactive stories with voiceovers, animations, games, quizzes and more are available to help make reading fun! This is available for free and can be accessed at the library or at home. Ziptales will work on any type of computer, both PC and Mac, as well as any device like iPads or Android Tablets.
