Built by a homeschool parent

Teach your child to read. Then teach them everything else.

Lumastery's 157-lesson Learn to Read program takes your child from first letter sounds to reading chapter books. Pre-K stays gentle and protected; when you decide they're ready for Kindergarten, placement opens the broader adaptive path through math, comprehension, grammar, and science — all on one dashboard.

Letter S, right now, no sign-up required.

How it works

Measure. Adapt. Track.

Step 01

Choose a Start

Pre-K begins directly in protected early learning. Kindergarten and up use a short assessment to find the right level.

Step 02

Teach & Adapt

Daily work adapts inside the selected path. Moving from Pre-K into Kindergarten happens only when a parent chooses.

Step 03

Track

Mastery is verified through spaced repetition, not one right answer. Skills are revisited over days and weeks to confirm lasting understanding.

Multiple children, one system

Three kids. Three levels. One dashboard.

What is live today

Daily math and reading, plus weekly extras

Adaptive math and reading every day. On-screen science, social studies, and a writing pilot sit beside that plan — not a full language, lab, or literature year.

Learn to Read & Read to Learn

157 Learn-to-Read lessons + adaptive Read-to-Learn practice

Learn to Read is a structured 157-lesson program from first letter sounds to chapter books — phonics, decoding, blends, digraphs, vowel teams, and fluency. Once your child is reading, the same adaptive engine carries them through vocabulary, comprehension, grammar, and literary analysis — at exactly their level, all the way through 8th grade.

Learn to Read: 3 levels, 157 story-driven lessons

Read to Learn: Vocabulary, comprehension, grammar, literary analysis

Adaptive: Each skill placed and verified by mastery

🧠

Math: Lessons + Adaptive Practice

Protected Pre-K foundations · Structured K–8 curriculum

Pre-K builds counting, shapes, comparison, and patterns inside its protected path. From Kindergarten on, structured lessons teach each math concept with stories and guided examples before adaptive practice verifies mastery.

Lessons: Story-driven lessons for every skill, K through 8th

Practice: Adaptive engine adjusts difficulty in real time

Flow: Learn the concept → Practice until mastery

🔬

On-screen Science

K through 8th grade · 117 on-screen lessons, no labs

Structured on-screen lessons across physical science, life science, and earth and space science. These are story-and-quiz lessons, not kitchen-table experiment packets or lab credit.

Physical: Forces, energy, matter & waves

Life: Cells, ecosystems, body systems & genetics

Earth: Weather, rocks, space & climate

Overall

Emma had a strong week across the board. Her math accuracy on timed addition jumped from 74% to 91%, and she's moved into two-digit subtraction with regrouping. In reading, short vowels are solid and she's starting to blend digraphs. Science: she completed both weather lessons.

Try This at Home

Grab a handful of coins and have Emma sort and count the total. Start with pennies and nickels, then add dimes.

When: Saturday morning

Read a short book together and pause on words with "sh" or "ch" — have Emma sound them out.

When: Bedtime, Tues & Thurs

Put 10 crackers on a plate. Eat some, then figure out how many are left. Write the equation together.

When: Snack time

Questions & answers

Lumastery covers daily math and reading from Pre-K through 8th grade, plus on-screen K–8 science, weekly social studies, and a 32-assignment writing pilot. There is no world-language program and no full writing or literature year. Ages 3-5 can begin in a protected Pre-K path with counting, letters, shapes, routines, and observing the world — no placement test and no accidental jump into older work. When you decide your child is ready for Kindergarten, you open that transition and a short placement finds their demonstrated skill level.

Pre-K daily practice is about 5 minutes, with longer Alphabet Adventure, lesson, and science activities available when you want them. Kindergarten and up typically takes about 15–20 minutes total, depending on the subjects you cover. Sessions stay short and focused. Sit with them — you will see what they are learning, watch them work through problems, and be there when something clicks.

Each child gets the right entry path. A Pre-K child begins gently without placement and stays inside protected early-learning work until you choose Kindergarten. Kindergarten and older children use placement to start at their demonstrated level. From one dashboard you can see what each child practiced, mastered, needs help with, and should do next — without switching apps or maintaining spreadsheets.

Pre-K is a protected foundation program with 12 authored lessons, 24 play skills, and 35 Alphabet Adventure stories. From Kindergarten through 8th grade, Lumastery can serve as the daily math and reading curriculum: structured lessons teach concepts, placement finds the demonstrated starting point, and adaptive practice verifies mastery (0.85 over the last 10 attempts). Learn to Read is 157 lessons. Science is 117 on-screen K–8 lessons — not kitchen labs. Social studies is 159 weekly lessons. Writing is 32 weekly assignments you grade — a pilot, not a full writing year. Literature is a 3-chapter pilot. There are no world languages.

Be with your child. Sit next to them, watch them work, and encourage them when they get stuck. The system teaches the concepts, adjusts the difficulty, and tracks mastery — you do not need to plan lessons or figure out what comes next. Your job is the part that matters most: being present. When your child looks up after getting three in a row and grins, you are right there. The dashboard — and, on Family plans, the weekly report — fills you in on the bigger picture.

For Kindergarten and up, a short placement test finds your child’s actual level. Pre-K deliberately skips placement and starts with playful foundations. Inside either path, structured lessons teach concepts, practice adjusts to the child, and spaced review checks that skills stick. Pre-K remains protected until a parent chooses the Kindergarten transition; after that, prerequisite mastery — not age alone — determines how K–8 work advances.

Family plans include a weekly report for each child: skills practiced, skills mastered, strength and weakness patterns, accuracy trends, what the system is adjusting next, and suggested home activities. The free plan shows progress on the dashboard. Family billing is not open yet — start free today, and you lock in the founding rate when it opens.
