Endless Reader
Endless Reader is an educational app that is available for download for apple and android devices. Endless Reader is set up as a game where young children ages 3-8 can build reading skills and learn to spell different words in a fun way. This game works by having the child pick a word from a group of flashcards. Next, the letters of that word scatter on the screen and the child must put the letters back in order to spell the word. While, the child is dragging the letters to their correct position the game verbalizes the sound the letter makes. After the word is spelled, then the option is given to put that word into a provided sentence missing three words. The child must then put the words where they belong in the sentence. I like this game because not only is it educational but the animated monsters are fun too. I like how the game builds upon itself requiring the user to use the word they just spelled in a sentence. The only thing I do not like is that if you want more packets of words you have to buy them. The worst thing though is that the free initial packet only involves words from the letters A-F.
