About reading groups

Important: Reading groups are currently only available on Android.

A reading group is a feature within the Read Along App that allows teachers to:

  • Create virtual student groups 
  • Check the reading activity of students on the app 

This allows teachers to provide relevant feedback and support to students based on their performance. 

The feature assures parents or guardians that their children:

  • Are educated in a safe environment 
  • Get guidance from their teachers to become better readers

Before you start

To set up Read Along as a teacher, you need:

  • Access to the internet
  • Android phones or tablets for teachers and students
  • A Google Account for the teacher to manage their reading groups
  • Google Accounts for parents of students to accept invitations to reading groups

For more information on how to set up Read Along for your class and students, visit the Educator handbook.
