ABC MAGIC PHONICS 4.3

This app is designed to assist children in learning the sounds of the letters of the alphabet, an essential skill for reading. By acquiring knowledge of letter sounds, children are equipped with the necessary tools for becoming proficient readers. The app pairs each letter with a corresponding phonetic photo image, aiding in the learning process.

One of the standout features of this app is its high level of customization. Parents have the ability to select which specific letters they would like their child to focus on during their learning journey.

It is important to prioritize lowercase letters when teaching your child. Capital letters only make up a small portion, approximately 5%, of the words found in printed text. On the other hand, lowercase letters make up an overwhelming majority, around 95%, of the printed word in books and periodicals. By starting with lowercase letters, you are providing your child with a smart start in their literacy development.

Understanding the sounds of the letters is crucial for children as they begin their reading journey. Similar to how counting skills serve as the foundation for addition, knowledge of letter sounds serves as the foundation for reading. Contrary to popular belief and current educational practices, teaching your child the names of letters does not directly contribute to their reading ability. However, teaching them the sounds of the letters does have a positive impact on their reading skills. Give your child a smart start by focusing on letter sounds!

The repetition and rhythm found within this app aids in the memorization of letter sounds. Your child will benefit from visual cues, such as photographic images and colored letters, that assist in their understanding of these sounds.

Children naturally engage with auditory cues when it comes to speaking sounds and words. In this app, each letter will repeat its sound when touched, and each photo will say its name when interacted with. Most young learners enjoy repeating the sounds they hear while using this app, making it an engaging and interactive learning experience.

By removing unnecessary bells and whistles, this app allows your child to focus solely on the essential skill at hand: associating a letter with its most commonly occurring sound. Created by a team of educators utilizing accelerated learning techniques and Montessori principles, this app has been tested with preschool children, who thoroughly enjoyed using it and benefitted from learning the letter sounds. We welcome your valuable feedback and suggestions to further improve our app.
