Developed through ongoing collaboration with practitioners, consultants and pupils, Giglets provides a range of tools and features to ensure support for diverse viewing preferences, varied learning contexts, and the needs of pupils with additional support requirements.
Broad range of texts
With a wide range of texts across ‘reading age’ and ‘interest age’, texts available on Giglets support teachers to match an individual child’s reading ability. On Giglets, you will find a growing range of ‘hi-lo’ reads ready to share with your pupils. To ensure texts are being comprehended, automatically marked comprehension quizzes provide instant feedback and valuable insights into pupils' understanding, helping teachers easily identify who needs additional support or requires further challenge.
Accessibility within the Giglets reader
When reading in their individualised reading portal, pupils have control over background colour, text size, and a choice of fonts. These choices are saved and transferred throughout the platform and are mirrored across texts and tasks to help accommodate individual preferences and promote sustained focus.
These features support reader comfort, but are not provided as interventions or diagnostic tools. If you suspect a pupil has reading difficulties or dyslexia, please refer to Nessy, ILT Education’s dedicated resource for specialist support.
