I Can Read Songs

The I Can Read Songs app teaches children to read and write 9 high-frequency sight words (I, we, go, see, like, can, the, my, and) by embedding them in the language of joyous songs. Children sing-along and dance-along as they learn the sight words. Then they can use the words for looking at print in little books and for writing messages.

These songs have been used as a supplement to literacy curriculum in preschools and kindergarten classrooms and as an early intervention to boost young children in early literacy skills.

I CAN READ is a non-profit company founded in 2005 by LaDonna Wicklund, a Reading Recovery® Teacher. It is the mission of I CAN READ to provide highly enjoyable reading resources which accelerate young children in early literacy skills and to distribute these resources to schools with at-risk students.
