Lalilo by Renaissance vs. Reading IQ

Given students whose behaviors can affect their ability to learn, Lalilo is well suited because it allows students to begin at their just right level and move ahead at their own pace. The fun factor is high enough that students stay engaged, even when they might not do so on other learning platforms. Students also enjoy comparing their badges, so for students who are motivated by competition with their friends, this works in their favor.

• Differentiate Instruction
• Pinpoint areas of need for students
• Engaging for our struggling learners
• Allows students to progress/work on skills that they need

• For my lower students, it would be nice to have more practice in alphabetical skills before moving on to reading.
• Sometimes the sound glitches out and we have to restart the lesson.

It has been very useful to our students and staff.

I gave Lalilo this rating, because my students were all able to get logged into the program and get started on their own, no matter their age. I like the reports that are available. They are tailored to individual student performance, so I can see what my students are capable of doing and what they still need help with.

Lalilo works right along side the Star assessments. As my students progress through the lessons, they are also scoring better on their Star tests. I would love to access the complete version, so I can see the complete reports. I need to find a way to get help in funding this.

• I don't have the complete version. I love how much I can do with the free version. My students love learning through Lalilo.
• I use this product periodically instead of daily or weekly. It is a great resource for my students, especially one who is in second grade and cannot even name all of the letters. He worked with Lalilo while I still was able to work with him and I could see him gaining knowledge as he was completing the activities. At first, he doesn't understand the concept being taught. It only takes a couple of minutes for him to learn the concept and pass the level to progress to the next.
