Great app for phonics

My 5 yr old loves this app and his knowledge of phonics improved using this app. Thank you
Great. Just one request.

This is a great app for learning how to write and recognize letters. However, I wish the voice would also speak the actual name of the letter before vocalizing how it is pronounced.

I love that students can progress at individual rates! The students love earning certificates, and I just have to open my email and print the certificates! Thank you!
Just what I needed!

I'm a first grade teacher with children of many skill levels in my classroom. I needed a solid researched program to help children learn letter sounds, and to be able to use them in making words. I needed this to be motivating enough that I wouldn't need to be standing over the child insuring that they were staying on it. I needed it to be individualized for individual needs, and beginning with very basic sounds, yet also having the capability to include consonant and vowel digraphs. I wanted to get the results go each child's progress to be sent to me. I wanted it to use lower case letters, and to be American English sounds. I needed a program that could remain on the same 6 letters for one student and yet go ahead to more letters for another. I'm very pleased with Pocket Phonics. It does what I am needing. I just wish I had more than one iPad for my class.

Was excited to buy this app for my grandson and it doesn't work. When it asked a verification question for the adult to proceed it just says the answer is incorrect. I have wasted my hard earned money. Can't even contact the company because you have to do the verification to even do that. I am saddened that a company would do this to people.
Awesome

My five year old was trying the free app and got into it right away. Was spelling words within the first few minutes. To those complaining about the verification. Look closer to the problem, it says (at least on mine) 8 x 6 not 8+6. So the answer is 48. You can enter 14 all you want, but it is not correct.
Loved by my 2.5 and 5 year olds

Both of my kids are bi lingual Hebrew and English. I'm not pushing English on them from a reading point of view yet, but they both enjoy tracing the letters and finding them in the words.
Very useful aid to homeschoolers.

I am a mother of two boys, 3 & 5. I have had this app for 3 years. I homeschool my boys and started this app as a median to teach sounds form words. I began this app with my eldest son at 2 yrs old. He had already memorized his letter and some of their sounds by 18 months. He loved this app and making words. I love that this app teaches phonetics as that is how i teach to read. My eldest son was reading simple 3 to 4 word sentences at the age of 3yrs. I now use this for my youngest son and it is helping with his speech (he is also in speech therapy with his school). He can now build words using sounds, but has issues with multiple syllable words. I do wish i could adjust some of the practice words, add more words to help build more practice, and create a more gradual learning curve. However, overall it does work and it is a great tool!
