My Take

I love this app as something educational that students can work on to expand their vocabulary. I think that if there were more words it would be more beneficial. I also would like for students to have to spell the word in order instead of just being able to put the letter where it belongs and not necessarily in order from the beginning to the end of the word. Overall this app is highly engaging and my students beg to "play" it!

How I Use It

I use this app as an extended learning activity or center. Students LOVE to use the app. It offers an engaging way to learn what new vocabulary words mean. The app does not have a ton of words but they do add words periodically. The students love that the letters make sounds when they drag them to the correct place. I like that the letters make the sound because it helps some students with their letter sound knowledge even though that is not necessarily the intended purpose.

Good resource for kids struggling with early letters/simple words

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

Great application

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 very adorable and fun app that helps kids practice all the letter names and sounds of the alphabet. It also helps kids learn new vocabulary words and provides visuals that explain the meaning of each word that is spelled.

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.
