Stupid-Wouldn't use it even if it was free
Salist
I can't believe they're charging $2 for this app. I shook a phrase about 3 times before I realized that I can come up with more clever sentences (that make more sense by the way) than this dumb app ever will. Don't waste your money!
Fun Fun Fun!

I recently had an opportunity to use this app at a family gathering, the entire crowd, of all ages, had so much fun! The younger crowd enjoyed the Quiz mode of the app. I like all 3 modes of the app. I found it to be educational and fun for everyone. The silly sentences brought lots of laughter. I would recommend this as a great, family friendly app.
Don't waste your money

It auto generates silly sentences, that's about it. I was hoping the app helped kids create their OWN silly sentences. There is the quiz section to identify nouns, verbs, and adjectives, but there a ton of other apps to identify parts of a sentence. Save your money and find another app that might actually be useful.
Parts of Speech/Writing Prompts

This was my first educational app I downloaded to my phone just to get the writing prompts. Then I discovered the Quiz Me section for learning the parts of speech and handed my phone to my students for a quick assessment. 6 months later I bought an iPad and now they work in pairs. My students absolutely love this app! It really inspires and motivates! The new update of more vocabulary words is going to rock their world when we return to school! (Thanks so so much for the update. My kids love being able to look up new words.) I'm also using this app now when tutoring and am getting the MarbleMath app too to use! Thanks again for the update threefold as I wouldn't have known about new app MarbleMath. A testimony to their privacy too!
Words not pronounced
Meg.Figueroa
Looks good so far, but it would be nice if the words could be pronounced when you click on them for students who are unsure of what the word is. This would be a fantastic app for my students, but if they don't know how to pronounce the words, it doesn't really help them learn new vocabulary.
Cool Graphics-Heady Words

I was hoping to use this with American 4th graders. The concept is exactly right but the prompts are too obscure.
Great fun!

I use this daily in class. And then when I come home, I use it with my kids! We've had so much fun!
Great, but...

Please consider adding these other parts of speech...adverbs and pronouns. Thanks!
