CAPIT is fully aligned with the Science of Reading. Our structured phonics lessons explicitly teach phonemic awareness, letter-sound relationships, decoding, encoding, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. CAPIT supports state literacy mandates by providing systematic instruction with built-in progress monitoring and data reporting.

Yes. CAPIT is the only digital platform that supports all three tiers of instruction. It offers whole-class Tier 1 phonics routines, targeted Tier 2 intervention, and adaptive Tier 3 support for students with dyslexia, language delays, and other learning needs.

Yes. CAPIT is designed to support differentiated instruction across all three tiers. Students complete lessons at their own pace, and teachers can assign targeted support, monitor progress, and group students based on skill level. CAPIT works equally well for whole-class, small-group, and individual instruction.

CAPIT is designed for Pre-K through 2nd grade. Our curriculum helps early learners build foundational reading and spelling skills, and it’s particularly effective for prevention and early intervention.

In Tier 1, CAPIT lessons are designed to be completed in just 30–45 minutes per day: 10–15 minutes of direct instruction followed by 20–25 minutes of student practice. Tier 2 and Tier 3 implementations vary based on student ability, allowing teachers to adjust pacing as needed. CAPIT supports consistent routines that are easy to embed into existing instruction, without adding extra planning time.

CAPIT Reading is featured on the Evidence for Essa website. A Johns Hopkins University study found that preschool students using CAPIT were 46% more likely to achieve kindergarten readiness. Additional studies show significant literacy growth in kindergarten and 1st grade, including 29% gains in early literacy scores in just six months.

Yes, CAPIT’s Pre-K curriculum is developmentally appropriate and backed by research. It uses engaging, age-appropriate routines to build phonemic awareness, letter-phoneme knowledge, and early print skills. A Johns Hopkins University study conducted in one of the largest school districts in the country found that Pre-K students using CAPIT were 46% more likely to reach kindergarten readiness, gaining the equivalent of 46 extra days of learning in one school year.

Every CAPIT implementation includes comprehensive onboarding, live virtual training, and ongoing support from our Success Team. Teachers receive access to resources, coaching, and real-time help to ensure smooth implementation and strong outcomes. Optional onsite professional learning sessions and onsite coaching are available. These sessions focus on the Science of Reading and CAPIT’s Sound-to-Print approach to reading instruction.

CAPIT can be up and running in as little as one week. Once rostering is complete and teachers are trained, students can immediately begin using the platform. Our team will support your rollout every step of the way.

If by OG we mean explicit phonics instruction, sequential skill-building, and diagnostic assessment, then yes—CAPIT shares several key principles with the OG approach. However, that's where the similarities end.

CAPIT is built on a newer methodology known as Sound-to-Print, which is simpler to teach and far more logical and accessible for students to understand.

CAPIT is primarily a digital platform, but it includes optional downloadable, printable worksheets and hands-on activities to reinforce offline learning. Additionally, schools can purchase physical classroom kits that include manipulatives and visual displays to create a blended, multi sensory experience.

Unlike most digital programs, CAPIT can be used for teacher-led Tier 1 instruction. It is not game-based. Instead, CAPIT delivers daily, explicit phonics lessons with built-in opportunities for rigorous student practice. The program supports whole-class, small-group, and 1:1 instruction across Tiers 1, 2, and 3, making it a comprehensive solution, not just a supplement.

CAPIT delivers the structure and depth of a full curriculum, without the bulk. Teachers follow a digital scope and sequence, with built-in activities, prompts, and assessments. This allows for easy implementation, consistent pacing, and real-time progress monitoring, which most paper programs cannot offer.
