Eaton RESA Launches Rising Readers Early Literacy App

Just in time for March is Reading Month, Eaton RESA is excited to announce the launch of Eaton Rising Readers, powered by Footsteps2Brilliance (F2B), an evidence-based, interactive literacy platform for children from birth through third grade.

F2B uses games, songs and stories to build vocabulary, phonological awareness and comprehension skills that set children up for lifelong academic success.

The app is free for all Eaton County families and accessible on any smartphone, tablet or computer. It offers personalized learning pathways tailored to each child's development, and tools that keep caregivers and teachers connected to their child's progress.

For educators and early childhood professionals, F2B includes professional development resources, data and reporting tools, and curriculum alignment guides to seamlessly connect platform content with classroom instruction.

As we celebrate a love of reading this month, we encourage all staff to explore the platform and share it with the families you serve. Families can get started by downloading the free app in the app store or by visiting myF2B.com and selecting "Create my Family Account."
