App Description
6 GAMES FOR 4 TO 8 YEARS THAT TEACH SINGLE SOUNDS AND WRITING SIMPLE WORDS
THIS IS THE FULL/EDUCATION VERSION OF OUR "Phonics - sounds to words" APP.
THIS APP TEACHES BEGINNING PHONICS. THROUGH OUR 6 GAMES KIDS LEARN TO READ, HEAR, WRITE AND REMEMBER THE SINGLE SOUNDS AND THEN USE THEM TO BLEND THE LETTERS TO READ WORDS, HEAR THE SOUNDS IN THEM AND THEN SPELL THEM.
*** ideal for beginning readers, pre-schoolers about to start school, kindergarten, reception and prep kids, and those having difficulty with reading. It is a companion to our Parrotfish Sight Words app ***
Understanding language, learning sight words and learning how sounds make words through a structured phonics program are proven to be the best ways for kids to learn to read.
10 to 15 minutes per day spent on a structured phonics program seems to be optimal. If your child is ready to learn to read then have them complete one level per day of this app to provide this experience.
This is a complete structured approach to teaching beginning phonics. When completed children should be able to read, write and spell simple words such as cat and fan, and blends such as brush and hang. (For teachers this covers single sounds, cvc, cvcc, ccvc, ccvcc, cccvcc)
