Issues on iPad
My 5 year old is doing monster phonics at school. I have put the app on both my iPhone and on her iPad. On the iPad, the app seems to be more zoomed in… this is leading to some of the bigger words not fitting on the screen, and we are unable to complete spelling the long word and moving on to the next. ( example being the word ‘children’) very frustrating for my child who then gives up playing/learning on the app. It works fine on my phone but I don’t want her using a phone.
Please could you look at this in an updateShow lessBenM1234567890
Poor implementation
While the concept of Monster Phonics might be great, this app is not. It is clumsy.
Of particular frustration to a child using the app is the letter writing practice. It does not register the first part of the letter you are writing so it doesn’t work properly.
There are lots of little UI issues that leave the child confused. Shoddy work.Show lessChris-toffee
Brilliant for children
My daughters school has just started using monster phonics. She loves playing this at home and especially loves buying accessories from the shop. Great to know she’s learning the same thing at home as at school.emma g77
Absolutely brilliant
My daughter has just started year R and the school are using the monster phonics scheme. The app is great at teaching and reinforcing and the reward via the pet shop bit has got my daughter hooked on learning.Madeline 1975
Well done!
I have both this app and the other Phonics 2 app with more high frequency words and they are both professionally made to engage and teach children. Each character has its own silly and catchy song that plays when you open up a lesson for that character's sound. The pronunciation is in British English, but I have only noticed minor differences in pronunciation. Just a heads up. This app is worth it for the songs alone, but there three activities to do for each sound too- a word unscramble, tracing, and spelling.Show lessspecialappssk
Amazing App
This is a stunning App! It helps with sounds, spelling and writing in a really fun and engaging way. It was wonderful to watch my little girl learn so much, so quickly and be so happy. Can't wait to get the next 100 words!Karis vw
HFW?
Really disappointing product. Why are phonemes spelt with more than one letter split onto different tiles?phonics teach
Great App
Fabulous App. My son loved this and kept returning to the different monster. He even hummed some of the songs. The activities are great and he is really improving his spelling. great App.CJR1971BKK
Super!
I LOVE this app! Thank you so much. My 5 year old granddaughter is addicted to the pet shop and she adores the monsters - especially the pink one. It is really educational. She started off loving the Trace mode but has begun to enjoy the Mix mode and the Spell mode. The colour coding for sounds is so simple and effective - I think it is really superb and should be in schools. My other granddaughter who is 8 years old had quite a lot of fun with it too. In fact, they've had to take turns! Love the songs too. This APP has a touch of magic about it - the best children's learning APP we have. More please Monster Phonics!Show lessOlgale
A superb phonics app
Fun, motivating and well designed with intuitive controls. The Monster Phonics programme for teaching phonics in Primary schools is excellent and this app matches the learning objectives of this programme very well. The children in my Year 1 class adore this app and always request to play it during Golden Time on a Friday afternoon. My daughter also enjoys playing this at home and she loves collecting the coins to unlock animals and accessories in the pet shop. The soundtrack is also utterly charming. An excellent app to support learning at home or at school.Show lessstef mildiner
