Reviews
Good App

This is a good app with one exception, the doorman. The tool that is matched with the doorman is one I am not familiar with nor can I find anyone who can identify it. Because of this, I am reluctant to attach audio to this board because I have no idea what to state as the name of the tool associated with the doorman. It is for this reason that I have rated the app three stars. I wish the makers of the app would attach text to the pictures or eliminate the doorman.
Bellhop

Agreed. The app is great for educational uses, but many students (and staff!) become hung up with the bellhop and the tool choosen.
Where are the women?

I love my first apps. I use many of them in my classroom on a daily basis. I was excited to see an app that fit well with our unit on people who can help, however I was very disappointed upon downloading it to find that there ARE NO WOMEN portrayed in the application. All of the pictures are of men. I will not be using this app in my classroom due to now having any female examples for my female students.

Good basic word association activity. Use for vocabulary development, sentence structure ("---- goes with ---"), Pragmatic language scripting ("What could the pilot say about his plane?")....lots of material to use for a variety of goals and objectives!
Would be better with a few changes

I like the setup of the app but wouldn't use it because of the pictures. Like other reviews have mentioned, I do not understand the picture that the bellhop is supposed to be matched with. Also, why show a judge with a wig? I'm not sure if all countries have gotten rid of these traditions, but where I live judges don't wear old fashioned wigs anymore and nurses don't wear hats with crosses on them. Another thing I don't like is the tool for the military person. This app is for children. Couldn't that job be matched with a helicopter, boat, or helmet instead of a weapon? At least until they are old enough to understand? Thanks for reading!
