Dear Parent,
We would like to introduce you to Pickatale. The Pickatale app is accessed in two ways: School and Families.
What is the Pickatale login for schools?
Pickatale is a free reading platform designed to work alongside existing approaches to support literacy and reading for pleasure in Key Stages 1-3. The curated library offers hundreds of educational, fiction and non-fiction e-books. These books cover topics such as diversity, moral dilemmas, friendship and more. All books are levelled to ensure that children are reading the appropriate books for their reading level.
We have various books that have quizzes at the end and there is the option to turn on audio and narration to support reading practice, which is perfect for young learners, and children where English is not their first language.
The app can be downloaded from Google Play and the iOS App Store. Pupils will be given a unique username and password by their teacher to access the library.
Students can access the app on-demand, anytime and anywhere on the following devices:
- Android Phones (Play Store)
- Android Tablets (Play Store)
- Chromebooks (Play Store)
- iPhone (iOS App Store)
- iPads (iOS App Store)
Android devices with version 6.0 and above and iOS devices from version 10.
Most Chromebooks from 2016 until the present day are supported.
