Teach Me to Read with Lucia 1.2.4

“Teach Me to Read” is an educational tool designed to facilitate progressive reading development for children aged 5 to 7. Developed with input from educators and tested by children, parents, and teachers, it offers a pedagogical approach grounded in the Constructivist and Montessori methodologies.

The application features three difficulty levels with corresponding reading comprehension activities tailored to each stage of literacy development. It provides three font options—Stick, School, and Printing Press—and supports seven languages: Catalan, English (U.S. and U.K.), Spanish (Spain and Latin America), Italian, French, German, and Portuguese (Brazil).

Designed to promote confidence and independence, children can explore the content at their own pace, advancing through levels as they master new skills. The app ensures a safe environment by eliminating in-app purchases and advertising, restricting access solely to educational content without internet connectivity or social networking features.

Within the app, users can engage with the same story in three ways: for non-readers discovering words; for developing readers seeking more detail; and for proficient readers exploring full narratives. It also enables language switching for bilingual practice or familiarization with new languages, enhancing the child's linguistic versatility.

A notable feature is the story “Lucia’s Birthday,” an original narrative designed to foster values such as curiosity and resilience. The story is available in multiple languages across various AucaDigital apps.
