Great app!

This is an app that kids will ask to return to over and over again. It's attractive and engaging. It is age appropriate for Pre-K, Kindergarten and 1st grade and would be great for use in the the classroom or as a recommendation for at home practice. It is educationally sound and well done!

A good app to actually teach spelling of a particular set of similar words containing the short "a" sound. The approach is methodical and effective. Like the ability to check on a child's progress and understanding of the material. Graphics are appealing and create a friendly scene. But, Mr. Spellyfish needs to be a little less cartoon-wacky.
Nice Spelling App!

Spellyfish - Short A Words is a fun way for kids to practice building CVC words containing short a. With clear instructions prior to game play, and excellent graphics, children will be engaged in learning to spell words. I like how the user can press a letter and hear the sound it makes. Very nicely done app! I would like to see the addition of more CVC words with the other vowels for a more robust app! Recommended!

This is a great app for emerging readers. It takes some adult involvement to get the settings right as well as to go over the instructions for using the app. Once the spelling begins it is very user friendly for a young child. The word to picture associations are very clear, along with the sounding out of each letter sound by spellyfish. I hope that this app is developed further with the addition of more words and extensions to the learning. This app is also good for multiple users and saves their progress for easy assessment.

Spellyfish is a fun app good for phonics and CVC spelling words (featuring the vowel "a"). The game is very interactive and fun for kids to play. I like the having the ability to create different user areas for all of my students. The animation and sound are fun and offer auditory prompts and visual prompts when needed. The app itself it easy to guide through.
LOVE this app!

Great graphics add to this super app to practice word families. Great for ages 4-6. Can add multiple players. Shows progress for each individual.
Love this app for short a CVC words!

Not only are players asked to spell a word that is stated, that word is also used contextually to aid in identification. The word is sounded out as the player taps letters on the keyboard and there is opportunity to self-correct when a word is misspelled. The player doesn't have to wait for the context clue to spell the word which allows for self-pacing nor do they have to follow the order of lists; s/he can choose which list of words to work on. This is a great app for the price--hope they continue developing apps for other word families!
Great beginning spelling app!

I love this app as a beginning spelling app. It has a nice little introduction and helps kids with CVC words! Thanks!
Short i is out...just waiting for the rest!

I've been using this short a app with my reading intervention groups. I'm planning to buy the short i version which just came out. If the short i is as good as the short a, there's not doubt that I'll be buying the rest. Thank you!
