Leave a Review Short Vowel Rocket Game
Great for competitive kids
My 7 year old LOVED this. I highly recommend the parent/teacher playing first to figure out how it works (yes it looks self explanatory but it’s imperative you prepare your child in advance for what the game will entail, especially if you have a child that gets discouraged easily. Tell them that if they get shot by a UFO, or use too many bullets, they will lose that round. Also, I recommend being near by your child while they play, so you can pronounce the word again or assist with the correct vowel sound (which is bound to happen with a young dyslexic.)Show lessSudsandBuds
Don’t buy does not work
I bought the bundle for my son multiple things in the game don’t work. Same with other apps from this developers Don’t buy!heaven.earth
Disappointed
I had hoped that these apps would be a quality addition to my OG instruction. I wish there was an option for playing that did not involve shooting or blowing something up.OG Teacher
Developer Response
Hi OG Teacher! We understand your desire for something that does not involve shooting, however, we find that these type of games are more exciting for older students (age 8+) and they often look forward to playing these games after the lesson (from our Blast Off to Reading! reading program). This "buy in" is often what is needed for many students. With that said, please check out our "I Can Fly" games which is geared for younger students (there's no shooting or blowing up anything). You can play free for 10 minutes to check out the games and activities, then you'll be asked to enter a code from the book that goes with the game app. If interested, you can find it this at this link: https://www.blastofftoreading.com/HTML5%20games/I%20Can%20Read%20Game/index.html.
