Learn the Alphabet with a Twist!

There are lots of early alphabet/language apps, but this one is one of the better ones. Very straightforward and well designed.

I found this program to be quite valuable for pupils in the Pre-K and Kindergarten levels. Because of its availability and ability to attract children into learning letter sounds and expanding their vocabulary, the product is an excellent teaching tool. The videos are entertaining and interactive. Kids would want to see them time after time, and they would.

This is a great little app that I would use in my classroom to help kids practice all the letter names and sounds of the alphabet. I would not use it during whole group instruction. However, I would use it as a reading center during my literacy block to give kids an opportunity with individual practice and review of the alphabet sounds. The monsters in this app are funny to watch and the visuals keep the kids engaged, however, this app does not go very deep into phonics or provide any support with other reading strategies. For example, it teaches new vocabulary words and their definitions, but it doesn't provide any opportunity for students to practice blending letter sounds. Students cannot create their own words or practice reading basic CVC words. And, it does not review sight words.
