Apprendre à lire en anglais‪!‬ 4+

This app has been wonderful for my six-year-old and seven-year-old sons… We began homeschooling last year for their kindergarten and first grade years, where our concentration was mostly on reading. We used the teaching and methods found in the book “Teach your child to read in 100 easy lessons”. This app fits perfectly with that methodology, and into our homeschool curriculum! Especially with our 6 year old, now first grader, who is still growing in his phonics recall, sequencing of sound, and fluency… Every time he completes a level he smiles so big!! This app is the perfect balance between curriculum and fun! I do believe that his foundation rooted in the book based curriculum has allowed him to move with a greater pace than the typical beginner schedule, and this app allows an adult to unlock the next lessons as I see fit. In all, this app is great no matter the experience of the learner and the teacher (caregiver)! It’s a gem that is well worth the cost! Finally, the app suggestion and emphasis on parent involvement is so important and necessary. Knowing some families don’t have that type of culture however, this would still be a good gift for a child with a device, and could be completed with the help of an older sibling or relative!

Thank you for your fantastic review! We're delighted to hear how our app has positively impacted your homeschooling journey and brought joy to your sons' learning. Your appreciation for the balance and flexibility of the app means a lot to us. Thanks for sharing your experience and for being a part of our community!

My daughter absolutely loves this game. She asks for it everyday and knows her numbers enough to override the grownup settings and try to do more than one lesson a day. She loves the song and is excited about each of the modules. I had originally bought the book Teach your kids to read in 100 lessons, but was overwhelmed by where to start when I saw this app and it seemed similar. We took the assessment and started in lesson 12. I like that this app offers and assessment so we didn’t start at the begging and below her level. I like that modules that reinforce phonics, comprehension, letter recognition and letter writing and reading (the components behind the science of reading). The app itself is not buggy and is seamless on both my phone and the iPad. Overall this is a great app that we love. My only suggestion is that the grownup screen use simple addition rather than the word form of numbers, which is easy for a learning to read kid to override.

Thank you for your review as well as your suggestion!

We just downloaded this app for my 5yr old who’s in preschool (turned 5 recently). The reason why I only have 4 stars is because I would like to see more games for them to play, on their own. Do the lesson with parents, then work on their own having fun with learning games. She just started so the only game she could play was the cloud one, & that frustrated her. She wanted to play more games from this app, but the other games were too advanced at the moment. So it would be nice to see more games for them to play, especially for beginners. So as they’re waiting for their next lesson they can have some fun playing learning reading games. Other then that so far it’s kept her interested. I’ve tried the hooked on phonics app, & she wasn’t interested. She kinda liked it, but I think it was too boring in the end for her. She likes the bar & sounding out the words with this app, liked the cloud game, & likes the song. She even went to watch her shows, & then asked me how she can get back to “her letters” lol
Also maybe have the cloud game come up with more pics & different items for each letter, when she saw the same stuff for letters she said “AGAIN!!? Ugh!” Haha! And she was hoping to see a snake for S.

We're glad that our app has kept your 5-year-old interested in learning to read. We appreciate your feedback regarding the desire for more games, especially for beginners, to play independently.
