Happi Words Reviews

Nice!

Mr Ingals

Word association is a smart idea for a learning app. Great reward system with the funny and cute collector's cards. Wish there were apps like this when I went to school.

I like this game

Hi I am 8 years old and this is my first review. I like this game because it makes me think and it has so funny little cards you can win.

Fun app

This app was challenging for some of my students but was also fun!

Its a nice game that has the player determine what the three pictures have in common, and they spell the word in common. There are two types of "hints" available and you earn stars to "buy" cards. I plan on using it as an idependent activity for my speech students while others are working. There is not multi-user, so either you start each one over, or have students' progress be cumulative. Not data taken either, so you don't know how they scored, but that is not as big of a deal for me. :)

Cute way to practice

Increasing in difficulty, this app allows students to using critical thinking skills to decide the common factor between 3 objects. It also gives hints as to whether the word is a noun, verb or adjective. There are specific letters chosen and a designated number of spaces to spell the word, so sometimes it takes a minute to figure out what word matches. I also like the cards you collect as you earn points. It creates an encentive to earn more and allows kids to save up for something else if they want.

Great to promote thinking

This app is good to promote thinking in children. I have a pre-k student and a first grader who play and both have fun identifying the common modifier. On my iPhone, it is sometimes difficult to drop the letters in the correct places. To me, the drop zone is too small and not really centered on the square.

I like the concept

There needs to be a series of tasks for the child to complete. It's just too slow moving for my students. Too many bells and whistles and not enough content. So with the limited space I have on my iPad, I will be deleting this app, sorry. It could be a good app.

The content is sufficient. I could see using it as a supplement activity to the science curriculum. It would be even more appealing I'd there were more interactive activities. I thought the graphics were cute and would appeal to the age group it targets. I could also see using it with students with modified curriculums in higher level grades. I am just being introduced to next generation science standards and wonder if the units are aligned to match them.

Wonderful word association game

Math Parent

Each problem has three pictures and the child tries to figure out and spell the word that describes them all. We think that it is nice that there is no penalty for needing more time to solve the problems. It is also not possible to get stuck as there are several ways to ask for help and there are just a few letters to choose from. As a reward kids can collect cards so there is an incentive to try to solve each problem without help. The less help you need the more stars you get. We were also very happy to notice that the app has the ability to add user profiles so that several kids can share the same device.

Great app with a creative way of teaching abstract concepts, such as word associations. Also mixing the associations with a little spelling and card collecting gives a lot of added value. Not to mention that it has loads of content, nice graphics and a great hint system.
