FREE for limited time – another sight words app, Sight Words & Spelling with Pixopop. In this app kids join Stitch Bunny and friends to learn 240 sight words arranged in 24 lists of 10. The app also permits you to create and record your own lists!
There are several things I really like about this app. 🙂 This app has 3 modes – flashcard, word challenge, and spelling.In the flashcard mode, I like that the word is shown but not immediately pronounced. This permits the child to read it then check his/her answer. In the word challenge mode, a word is pronounced and the child has to pick it from a list of 4 words. As the child picks the correct word, a character is constructed on the left side of the screen. I like that all words can be set to begin with the same letter so that the child has to look carefully. In the spelling mode, kids have to spell words using a keyboard. I like that it can be set to be arranged like a computer keyboard rather than an a – z keyboard. And the BEST thing about this app is that is keeps track of the child’s progress. It shows a score for each list, the date passed, and the time spent. AWESOME!!
