Professor Pup’s Academy in the Classroom
Welcome to Your One-Stop Shop for Phonics
Our comprehensive phonics programs empower teachers and support early reading success in every student.
We are thrilled to report that our younger grades, and particularly Transitional Kindergarten, have seen significant increases in early literacy! We credit much of this to the Pup’s Academy programs.”

The #1 concern we hear from teachers is that they never received adequate training in phonics instruction. That’s why they don’t always feel equipped to help students struggling with the early stages of reading.
This creates an additional burden for busy teachers like you. It forces you to seek additional phonics resources and invest more energy into the kids who are having a hard time.
Luckily, we designed our comprehensive phonics programs with teachers in mind. These evidence-based, kid-friendly programs will have your students learning AND having fun independently.
All while allowing you to track their progress effortlessly.

What Teachers Are Saying
“Pup’s Quest is a great resource for teaching phonics in TK and kindergarten classrooms! Through the use of audio, visuals, and differentiated methods of instruction, our students are able to build a strong phonological foundation.”
– Miriam Vega, Kindergarten Teacher
“Pup’s Quest has really helped my students. They never get tired of it. Every single day, they’re like, ‘Are we gonna do Pup’s Quest today?’ Because they love it.”
– Jade Laines, Kindergarten and 1st Grade Teacher
“I’ve noticed that since my students have been using Phoneme Farm, we’re already starting CVC words. They’re able to sound out words and read. When they’re working independently in the library, they’re reading words, and they’re just thrilled with that.”
– Erica Medina, TK Teacher
“The Professor Pup’s Academy apps have been a great asset to our Language Arts curriculum. Our goal is to have our 1st grade students reach benchmark by the time they reach 2nd grade, and the Professor Pup’s Academy apps are a great way to achieve this!”
– Michele Alvarado, 1st Grade Teacher
