Accessibility

Our goal

We want everyone to be able to practice in Story Gym. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA.

What we support

  • Every activity works with taps, a keyboard, or a screen reader.
  • A "Skip to content" link and a visible focus outline.
  • Feedback and timer messages are read aloud when they appear.
  • Story Shuffle cards can be moved with buttons, not just dragging.
  • Timers are optional, off by default, and can be stopped at any time.
  • Sounds always come with an on-screen message.
  • Animations switch off when your device asks for reduced motion.
  • Story X-Rays show every recording word for word as text.

Known gaps

Some Listening Lab recordings do not yet have a full written transcript, and the printable tester guide PDF is not fully tagged for screen readers. We are working on both.

Tell us about a problem

If something gets in your way, please tell us through the feedback form or the contact box on any page. We aim to respond within five business days.
