Dallas–Fort Worth, TX — 11/18/2025 — AIR Language, the leading AI-supported reading and language platform for secondary multilingual learners, today announced the release of its newest feature: Book Assignment, a simple yet powerful tool that allows teachers to directly assign leveled books to individual students or groups — with instant tracking, automated scaffolds, and real-time progress data.
This update marks a major step toward AIR Language’s mission: guaranteed reading growth for every learner without adding to teachers’ workloads.
A Solution to a National Reading Challenge
Across the U.S., multilingual learners are experiencing stagnant reading levels. Teachers know students need more time reading — but monitoring independent reading across multiple proficiency levels has always been nearly impossible.
The new Book Assignment tool solves this.Now, teachers can:
Assign any book from AIR Language’s growing library of decodable texts, fiction, nonfiction, picture-supported readers, and academic content books.
Automatically deliver scaffolds tailored to each learner’s proficiency — vocabulary previews, picture dictionary access, guided questions, and Ari (AIR Language’s AI reading tutor).
Receive instant completion and performance data without collecting student work or grading manually.
Group students by need and assign differentiated texts in seconds.
A Breakthrough for Secondary + Newcomer Programs
Secondary teachers consistently identify independent reading as one of the hardest structures to implement with multilingual learners. AIR Language’s Book Assignment feature eliminates the two main barriers:
Finding age-appropriate, accessible texts, and
Tracking reading without increasing teacher workload.
“Teachers told us they needed a way to get students reading every day without adding more paperwork,” said Kyle Larson, CEO of AIR Language. “This feature finally makes it possible. You click ‘assign,’ and AIR handles the rest — scaffolds, data, and student support. Students get meaningful reading practice, and teachers get time back.”

Ari, the AI reading tutor, for real-time support
Automated formative data dashboards
The Picture Dictionary and vocabulary engine
Reading Conference tools for small-group or 1:1 conferences
Dynamic Standards Rollout for tracking skill-aligned growth
