TeachMe: Kindergarten
24x7digital

Genre: Education
Price: $0.99
Release Date: November 12, 2009

** INTRODUCTORY PRICE **

TeachMe: Kindergarten is an educational iPhone app which teaches four different age appropriate subjects to Kindergarten aged children: sight words, addition, subtraction and spelling. Parents can select which subjects they want, set different difficulty levels, and even choose specific questions. Parents can review performance history for each subject to check how their child is doing.

TeachMe: Kindergarten keeps children engaged with a rather unique reward system where children earn a coin for every three correct answers. Coins can then be used to purchase stickers to place in fun sticker scenes. Sticker scenes can be exported as wallpaper or emailed to family and friends.

The simple and intuitive user interface is designed to be child friendly, which allows children to play without help from an adult. An animated teacher (Mimi Mouse) gives verbal instructions and feedback to the child which makes learning fun.

FEATURES:
• 4 different sticker reward scenes: beach, underwater reef, pirate cove, city
• Over 70+ different stickers for adding to a scenes
• Save learning information for up to four different children
• Select which subjects are displayed for each child
• Turn on/off specific questions within a subject
• Change the number of correct questions to earn a reward
• Tracks performance for each subject item (last five)
• Export sticker scene to Photos, for emailing or using as wallpaper

LEARNING SUBJECTS:
• Sight Words: Dolch (Pre-K), Dolch (K)
• Addition: up to a total of 10
• Subtraction: from 10 down
• Spelling: complete words by choosing the first letter

AUDIO PROBLEMS: Happen occasionally due to the iPhone's hardware. If you have trouble hearing the audio try these steps: make sure the red dot is hidden on the mute switch, adjust the volume higher, switch the mute switch on and off a few times, insert and remove headphones (sometimes the iPhone gets confused on the state of the mute switch or the that a headphone is inserted).

FEEDBACK:
@Drewsaddress & @C MD hand: To make the learning more challenging, increase the difficulty for the different topics. Tap Options, then your child's name, and then drill down into each 'TeachMe Topic'. Email us for more info.

Also checkout our app 'TeachMe: Toddler' which teaches Phonics, Letters, Numbers, Shapes & Colors.

=============

With Toddler Flashcards you get hundreds of beautiful cards, all accessible from one simple application. And with language support, Toddler Flashcards can help you teach these words in English, French, or Spanish!

FEATURES:

=============
CAN'T HEAR AUDIO? TROUBLESHOOT HERE:
If you can't hear the voice/audio, try these steps:

1) make sure the iPhone volume is up to the max

2) If the ringer is on vibrate mode (button in the upper-left corner of iPhone), make sure to take it out of vibrate mode (flip the switch towards you)

3) This app downloads all its sounds using the iPhone's WiFi or 3G data connection. So you need your iPhone to be Internet-connected wirelessly, and run the app for a little while (about 10 seconds on WiFi, or a minute on 3G) until all the sounds load fully. Just connecting it to your PC isn't enough.

Pocket Universe: Virtual Sky Astronomy - Craic Design

Pocket Universe: Virtual Sky Astronomy
Craic Design

Genre: Education
Price: $2.99
Release Date: March 27, 2009

Winner of Mac World's 2009 App Awards (Education), Pocket Universe is the ideal astronomy app for those keen to learn about the night sky. The unique display is generated dynamically depending on your location and time, and then rendered in 3D for a super fast response - flick the sky and it spins around you. Pocket Universe is a brilliantly simply star map that's always up-to-date and accurate. If you want your kids to learn the constellations, or to impress a date with the names of the stars, this is the only app you need.

"The app works beautifully, making astronomy a bit less mysterious—but no less remarkable", MacWorld

"It’s truly an impressive marvel. 5 Mice out of 5", MacWorld.

"..one of the prettiest and easiest to use. And at three bucks, it’s a steal", Cult of Mac.

Augmented Reality

Pocket Universe was the first iPhone astronomy app to support the built-in compass, and it was also the first to add a true augmented reality view using the iPhone's built-in camera! Use the camera view in the evening or morning sky to overlay the labelled view over the real sky (Note: the iPhone camera is not sensitive enough to show stars or planets).

Simply hold up your iPhone 3GS in front of you, and the view will be exactly what you see - but with names and information at your fingertips. Move the iPhone around to see the view change in real-time. As previous iPhone models and on the iPod Touch do not have a compass, the up/down movement is automatic, but you will need to drag the display left/right yourself.

• Apple App Store Staff Favorite
• Voted Best Educational iPhone Application by AppAdvice

Key Features

• Easy-to-use astronomy application, which focuses on helping you answer the question "What's that in the sky?"
• Works on all iPhones and iPod Touch devices with latest firmware (iPhone 3GS required for compass support)
• Special "Show Me" mode will guide you to named stars, planets, constellations as well as the brightest galaxies and nebulae.
• "Tonight's Sky" and "Objects and Events" will keep you up-to-date, and give you suggestions for what to look for when you head outside.
• Constellation Quiz to help you learn your way around the sky.
• Links to Wikipedia articles for the latest information.
• Responsive customer support and frequent updates and new features.

Please note: Network access is only required to view supplementary web-based news and Wikipedia text. The rendering of the 3D sky and positions of the stars and planets are all calculated in real-time with no access to 3G, Edge or WiFi required.

Specifications

•Plots the position of the Sun, Moon and Planets (including Pluto)
•Displays 10,000 stars and the Messier Catalog of Deep Sky objects.
•Draws the 88 Constellations outlines
•Show Me mode for guidance to planets, constellations and bright stars
•Lunar phases for the current, next and previous months
•Tonight's Sky creates a list of meteor showers and visible planets
•Constellation Quiz helps you learn your way around the sky
•Jupiter's Moons (visible in a small telescope)
•Regularly updated news section for viewing suggestions
•Night Vision mode
•Augmented Reality mode for use during Twilight on iPhone devices.
•Location found automatically or may be specified manually.

For support or to ask a question, feel free to send a direct message on Twitter to @CraicDesign.

Note: Non-English localizations focus on solar system objects and constellation names. Translations will be expanded with future releases.

abc PocketPhonics: letter sounds & writing + first words
Apps in My Pocket Ltd

Genre: Education
Price: $0.99
Release Date: December 08, 2008

66% off. Apple Staff Favourite. "Best" award from iPhoneAppsPlus.com. Macworld app of the day.
iPhoneMom.com - “PocketPhonics is seriously educational and I think it’s a terrific tool for helping early readers. You can tell that a ton of thought and research was put into it and best of all, they talked and listened to teachers. It shows.”
====================================
Macworld - "Teach your kids to write with this innovative educational iPhone app ... help young children understand letters, and start the road to reading."
====================================

THREE-APPS-IN-ONE
Uniquely, PocketPhonics combines in one app:

- Letter sounds
- Letter writing practice
- 170 first words

PocketPhonics is loved by kids and praised by teachers because it’s educationally powerful and engaging.

Only PocketPhonics follows the “synthetic phonics” teaching method - the keystone of the “Reading First” part of the “No Child Left Behind Act”.

Of course, like all apps that best sell themselves, there’s a FREE version (“abc PocketPhonics Lite”), so you can try before you buy.

LETTER SOUNDS
Simply put, phonics (letter sounds) is about helping children learn to read by understanding the sounds that letters make.

The Congressionally-mandated National Reading Panel concluded that children who have “phonics instruction read better and spell better than other children”.

Why letter sounds (phonics)?
Letter sounds (how we say letters when we use them in words) are not the same as the letter names (what we call the letters). For instance, sound out slowly to yourself "cat". And you can see that the sounds that make up the word are nothing like what we call the letters.

A child who knows their letter names won't actually find that this helps them to read even simple words like “yes". By contrast, a child who knows their letter sounds will learn to read words they’ve never seen before.

PocketPhonics teaches the letter sounds for the letters in the alphabet. It also teaches over 30 letter sounds that come from combining letters together (like “sh” and “ch”), because they are key to reading so many frequently-used words. Most apps only teach A to Z.

LETTER WRITING
PocketPhonics visually demonstrates how to write each letter. An obvious thing to do, but quite tricky to program (and you’ll have to look hard to find another iPhone app that does this).

Children enjoy practising their writing by tracing the letter with their finger; with a shake they can erase their old writing and try again.

Options under the PocketPhonic’s Settings screen allow you to choose between:
* two popular handwriting styles like those taught in US schools
* lowercase, uppercase and cursive letters.

PocketPhonics checks the accuracy of your child's writing (can be switched off and the tolerance varied - touch the Settings button).

170 FIRST WORDS
Using a unique, "blend letter sounds to make words" spelling game, children have fun learning to sound out and spell over 170 frequently-used words.

There’s nothing else like it on the App Store.

HOW POCKETPHONICS WORKS
The first screen shows the six most commonly-used sounds. Once your child has practised each sound, they then play the word game. It teaches them frequently-used words composed from the sounds they’ve learnt. Reinforcing their learning with animated figures heralding their success.

Once they’ve learnt these first six sounds, they move onto the next group.

HOW IT WAS DESIGNED
This application was designed and reviewed by teachers who use synthetic phonics to teach children to read.

PocketPhonics focuses on letter sounds because they are key to reading and it doesn’t confuse children by trying to teach them the letter names at the same time.

SUPPORT
We always love hearing from our customers. Touch the “help” button on the first screen within PocketPhonics.

Peekaboo Barn

Genre: Education
Price: $1.99
Release Date: December 23, 2008

Inside a little bouncing barn, friendly farm animals are waiting to pop out and surprise your little one. Try and guess who they are; tap the doors to find out!

Work with your child to learn the names of animals--in English or Spanish--and hear the sounds they make! Younger children will love opening the barn doors to find a new animal animation, as they learn about cause and effect and become familiar with animal names and sounds. Older children will enjoy guessing animals by sound, then seeing the animal names, which helps develop early literacy skills. And everyone will adore the illustrations by Divya Srinivasan, whose work is regularly featured in the New Yorker.

 FEATURED BY APPLE
Peekaboo Barn has been downloaded more than 200,000 times. It has been a top 10 educational game on the iTunes store nearly every day since its launch, and has been featured by Apple multiple times, and recommended by the New York Times, USA Today, and Wired.

Peekaboo Barn was made for you and your toddler by artists and educators, not marketers, robots, or companies repackaging clip art. Our team has backgrounds in cognitive science and child development, and we’ve worked in educational media everywhere from Yahoo! to the Smithsonian Institution.
 When you could really use a safe distraction--in airports, restaurants, and waiting rooms--or you'd like to try something new with your little genius, Peekaboo Barn is the educational, artful solution. Enjoy!

Just released: If you like Peekaboo Barn check out our second app in the Peekaboo series: Peekaboo Wild. All new animals in the African grasslands!

NO SOUND?
If your sound isn't working, make sure you have the sound switch turned on (on the side of your iPhone), and check Settings in the app--your toddler may have turned off the animal sounds!

NEED HELP?
Have questions or concerns? Please email us at support@nightanddaystudios.com and we’ll get right on it! Peekaboo Barn uses the latest in animation technology from Apple. Make sure you’ve updated your iPhone or iPod Touch to the latest version before you install.

WE’RE LISTENING
Lots of requests for a jungle version--and we've answered with Peekaboo Wild. Thanks to those of you who have reviewed Peekaboo Barn so far! We are working to incorporate your feedback in updates and new apps--stay tuned! If you’d like to be notified about future Peekaboo releases, email us at info@nightanddaystudios.com to be added to our email list. And if you love us and write a great review, don't forget to choose 4 or 5 stars, not 1!

**** English, French, German and Spanish

Do you have a child learning to recognize, say or write their ABC's? There's an app for that! Find out why Apple is featuring ABC Animals on the iPod Touch and iPhone devices in their stores.

Apple at Macworld 2009 said: "Elegant in its simplicity."

AppCraver.com said: "ABC Animals provides a unique interactive teaching tool that makes learning letters fun." 9/10

O'Reilly Media, Inc: "Best App for Learning ABC's"

Geekdad.com said: "I love the fact the letters are sitting on 'lined paper' graphics and the clear directives on how to write letters had me imagining school classrooms full of children with iPhones..."

An Apple "Staff Favorite," ABC Animals provides a wonderful set of interactive flashcards that aid in teaching young children to recognize, say and print English alphabet letters. Intuitively scroll between cards with the flick of a finger. Fun and engaging animal illustrations help to keep learning ABC's fun! Audio accompanies each card providing a letter name, associated animal name and the phonetics for each letter. Double tap any card to flip it over and practice tracing both uppercase and lowercase letters right on the screen of your iPhone. Shake to erase. Preferences allow a parent to choose the handwriting method best suited for their child, enable or disable any or all sound effects, randomize card order or prevent cards from flipping over if practicing writing skills or phonics isn't age appropriate. ABC Animals now enables bilingual families to practice their ABC's in English, French, German or Spanish.

School supply stores regularly charge ridiculous sums of money for a set for ABC flashcards. Why spend that sort of money for a set of non-interactive flashcards? ABC Animals provides 68 professional illustrations, 2 handwriting methods per letter and audio -- all for less than the cost of a gallon of gas! Teach your preschooler letters, phonics and basic printing on the go with ABC Animals. It's like having a preschool in the palm of your hand!

Please note that the first generation iPod Touch does not have built in speakers! To hear the audio for ABC Animal's on the iPod Touch, users will need to plug headphones into the headphone jack.

Feedback, bug reports and suggestions are welcomed and encouraged! Please visit the Critical Matter website to provide any of the above or to receive support for your purchase. Thank you!

PopMath is a fun game for kids of all ages to practice basic math.

Pairs of bubbles float on the screen and your goal is to pop each pair. For example, one bubble says "7" and another says "3+4". Simply touch one bubble and then the other to pop them both.

At any time, you can choose different operators: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Once you've popped all pairs on a level, you see your time for that level and can move on to the next level, or keep practicing that level.

New levels increase the numbers shown in the bubbles, up to 1000 for addition/subtraction and 20 for multiplication/division.

PopMath rewards your child with fun sounds and end-of-level animations to make the experience fun.

Yet it provides a non stressing experience: the time is shown after each level, but you don't loose. Just finish at your own pace. A personal message encourages you based on your time.

The last level is saved so you can start again at that level if you want, or simply "Go to Level 1" again.

Now with 2 additional themes! Go to school and under the Sea with Kid Art! Themes include more backgrounds to draw from and more animals and icons to choose from! You can even drop, move, and resize animals into your drawing!

Hi Parents!
This app is dedicated to all the children who love to draw on their parents iPhone but would appreciate a simpler app.

The other day we were watching our young niece play with her Daddy's iPhone. She LOVES to draw on with it. But we noticed that the controls for the drawing app she was using were way too complicated. She often got stuck in a settings window and didn't know how to get out. She would have to ask her Daddy for help. Also, when she drew a cool drawing, she didn't know how to save it. She again had to ask her Daddy for help. So we thought "Wouldn't it be great if we made an app that had super-simple controls for kids? And what if we made it were it was impossible for the kid to go into a screen where they couldn't get out (barring that they didn't hit the home button)?" Thus, the inspiration for Kid Art was born, and the rest is history.

We're proud to present the premier drawing app for kids on the iPhone.
1. Super simple controls that are friendly to kids.
2. Bright and lively colors.
3. Ability to toggle between background colors and images for cooler drawings.
4. Easily save your drawing by touching the giraffe (saves to Photo Library).
5. Erase drawing simply by shaking the phone.

from,
the developers of Kid Art

Letter Tracer preschool letters writing practice - Niftybrick Software

2010-03-10T03:54:33-07:00

Letter Tracer preschool letters writing practice
Niftybrick Software

Genre: Education
Price: $0.99
Release Date: April 18, 2009

★★ By popular demand, now with voice-over! ★★

Read what our users are saying!

★★★★★ "I bought this app for my 5 year old who is so excited to show everyone the letters she is writing using this app. It is priceless to see her pride and confidence [...] Thanks for a great app."

Designed by parents, for preschoolers aged 2-5 years.

LetterTracer is an educational tool that helps preschoolers and other pre-reading children trace and paint letter and number shapes. Early exposure to letters and numbers helps prepare children for reading and writing in grade school. LetterTracer's three-way combination of visual letters, interactivity via tracing, and a spoken voice-over helps children learn and retain the alphabet.

Designed by parents, LetterTracer is generally appropriate for children ages 2 to 5, and was intensively field-tested by our own children! Uppercase and lowercase letters A to Z and the numbers 0 through 9 are shown in three selectable styles:

✔ Flashcard mode: each letter is shown in its regular, filled-in black-on-white rendition. Use this mode as you would flash cards, to practice recognizing letters and numbers with your child.

✔ Tracing mode, for younger children: a hollow outline of each letter is shown. Your child can finger-paint on the screen to trace the letterform.

✔ Freeform mode, for older children: a smaller image of each letter is shown in the upper-left corner; the rest of the screen is available for freehand drawing of the letterform.

Choose from three difference voices; each calls out the name of letters as they appear, to reinforce your child's learning:

✔ Adult Male
✔ Adult Female
✔ Child

LetterTracer is easy and fun to use for both parents and kids:

✔ In flash card mode, "swipe" back and forth to move between letters easily

✔ When drawing, shake your iPhone or iPod Touch to clear the screen and start over. Kids love this feature!

✔ Choose a larger, more forgiving brush size for younger children, or a smaller, more precise brush size for older children

✔ Choose from 10 painting colors

✔ Choose from three different voices to call out letters and numbers

Tactile practice with letters is an excellent complement to "passive education" from television. LetterTracer is appropriate for roughly the same audience as pre-reading and early-reading skills shows such as Super Why, Sesame Street, Blue's Clues, WordGirl, Between the Lions and WordWorld.

LetterTracer is excellent ABC practice for native English speakers, but is also appropriate for introducing the English alphabet to ESL students.

iLearn2Talk

Genre: Education
Price: $1.99
Release Date: July 04, 2009

★ Featured in App Store's What's Hot in and ranked #4 in Education in November '09.

Learn to Talk is an innovative audio flash card application that facilitates language development in one to three year-old children. It uses both sight and sounds to teach toddlers basic vocabulary and early language skills.

Over 160 highly interactive, colorful flash cards engage and motivate toddlers to learn by themselves. For each lesson, your little one simply needs to swipe with her/his fingers to the left for the next card to appear or swipe to the right to go back one. As she/he flips through the cards, your child listens to, repeats and learn the words and phrases.

At home, in the car, on an airplane or in a grocery store, these unique flash cards keep your kids engaged, entertained and bring hours of enjoyment and educational benefits. And you will never have to sort a deck of flash cards again!

This program is designed to systematically enhance your child’s acquisition of a first or second language beginning at the earliest levels of language acquisition. Whether learning English as a first or second language this innovative program is designed for use with:

- Typically developing toddlers
- Dual language learners
- Children with specific language impairments:
- Receptive or Expressive Language Delay
- Autism Spectrum Disorder
- Neurological Disorders
- Delays Due to Multiple Language Acquisition
- Hard of Hearing

Designed and tested by a nationally certified speech pathologist with over 30 years experience working with speech and language development, this program uses prompts similar to flash cards, but the words are written, spoken and illustrated to better facilitate organized modeling and development of vocabulary and early word combinations.

As a parent you lead your child through the natural hierarchy of communicative intent, beginning with high impact words,
expanding meaning by changing intonation of speech, adding vocabulary including nouns, and verbs, and then developing early syntax, simple combinations of words.

This early deck includes early building blocks of nouns, verbs and two term combinations: action-object such as "kiss baby" or agent-action such as "daddy walk."

The natural progression for the initial deck in this application is as follows:

- Acquire initial exclamations or comfort words - we call these high impact words.
- Acquire approximately 50 labels.
- Learn approximately 10 action verbs.
- Next develop these single word utterances by expanding intonation patterns to express a variety of intents with a single word.
- Syntax and grammar emerge as the child begins to combine 2-3 words, and seek to expand their communicative ability.

As your child masters one and two word combinations, turn the sounds off and switch to Shuffle mode so that they can practice language production independently, relying on language processing and formulation skills.

As your child progresses and is ready to expand their vocabulary and linguistic combinations, look for our additional upcoming language decks to expand your use of this application.
