Description
Including Apple featured Literacy Apps, and in use in 100s of Australian schools, the Oz Phonics app series is Australian made, and designed to build students' literacy skills with a series of step-by-step exercises.
Features:
- Australian Accent – Australian vowel sounds are not the same as American or English accent vowels. New Zealand accent also available in the first 3 apps.
- exercises are designed with minimal distractions - with the exception of the odd letter munching crocodile.
- we provide printable worksheets on our website ozphonics.com and encourage students to use both iPad, and pen and paper as part of the learning process.
- for school use, sample lesson plans are provided on our website ozphonics.com
- Students are first taught to identify the sounds in words (phonemic awareness) and then shown ways of representing those sounds in letters. This method is called synthetic phonics, and research has shown it to be the most effective method of reading instruction.
- our apps do not include reward systems. We encourage teachers/parents to set appropriate rewards, and give personal praise and encouragement where appropriate.
- there are no external links or social sharing in our apps.
For home use we suggest that parents/careers take an active role in instruction
See individual app descriptions for more details. Note that this is a bundle of iPad only apps.
Schools wishing to purchase the app series should enrol in the Volume Purchase Program to access educational bulk purchase discounts.
Ratings and Reviews
Great set of apps
I’ve started using this bundle of apps with the students I tutor. It’s great to find apps with Australian pronunciation! The apps are sequential, consistent with a systematic phonics approach, and are easy to use. They are crisp and clear without the distracting “bells and whistles” and babyish pictures that many apps for kids feature, making them suitable to use with older learners needing phonics teaching. I have yet to fully explore every level but I really like what I have seen so far, and the bundle is great value for money. Highly recommended!
Not engaging for kids
I liked that it used Australian accents but it isn’t fun or engaging enough for young kids, my daughter just lost interest in a matter of minutes. Kind of disappointed because I bought the whole bundle in hopes that she might have something educational to do on the iPad but she won’t use it. There goes $15 😔
