Reader Bee - Big Letters 4+

Reader Bee Big Letters is a kindergarten and first grade app that guides children in forming capital letters, and learning one use for the big letters—starting a sentence. Each word in the sentence uses only one sound per letter, and all words are short so young children can read the sentence. The magic comes when children swap out one of three picture words to make a new silly sentence by dropping the picture into the sentence. Then children can color a silly illustration for the sentence and print it. This app takes children far beyond the formation of capital letters to one of the main uses of capitals, to reading simple words, to thinking about amusing variations (making new brain connections) to making the new sentence their own. Weaving silliness into the activity is key in encouraging children to enjoy mastering early literacy skills. There are 5 sets of letters, each using Reader Bee’s daisy sets of 7-8 letters. A sequel to Reader Bee and the Story Tree, winner of many national awards, including the Parents’ Choice Gold Award, Big Letters is another classic.
