BuddyQuest
Become a reading coach — for ages 9–14. Poco, a younger reader, gets a little stuck on a word, and YOU pick the best way to help: say the sound, model the blend, tap it out, or cheer the strategy. Coaching a reader is one of the best ways to lock the sounds in for yourself. Print a session card and run it with a younger buddy. On-device, no accounts.
