Literacy at MNW Elementary

Lexia products are centered on a personalized approach to learning that gives students more control over the time, place, path, and pace of their learning.  To some, the term "personalized learning" is simply the incorporation of technology to give students more control over their educational experience.  Technology can be a key component of a personalized learning approach, but it cannot stand alone.

All of Lexia's products are designed according to the latest scientific findings in education in addition to recommendations on the best approach to reading instruction from The National Reading Panel. To access Lexia with your child's information, go to
