Weak app
I thought this would have scenarios of how to react to the situations but alas it is just posing questions. This isn’t something my child liked or wanted to do based on the first few questions.
Super!
As an elementary school English as a second language teacher, I love Super Duper Fun Decks. Pictures are an indispensable tool for learning language. The pictures in this Fun Deck are a springboard for language production and comprehension. Teachers can use the images in conjunction with a sentence frame in order to structure and extend the students' responses. Sometimes I project the "card" from the iPad onto a screen and we play as a whole group. Other times I use the app to work with a smaller group of students so I can closely monitor their language production and listen to them explain their thinking. In whole group playing, student partners can confer with each other write their answers on a small white board. I award points for the correct answer AND for the partners explaining why they made the answer choice. Either way has the advantage of triggering metacognition as students have to explain their thinking. The teacher can also keep score within the app of the students' correct/incorrect responses. The colorful app keeps the students engaged and learning!

Really good but...
I am using this app for an 11 yo child who is on Autistic Spectrum. I would look at buying every single one of your apps if they were multiple choice. Particularly if ie for this one, with relevant photo reference to facial expressions aligned to multiple choice option or where the photo expression forms the actual option with a verbal explanation, ie you tap on the photo of a happy face, and it says "happy". When chosen the right one, the child double taps or presses next or whatever to score.
Leaving "open ended" answers doesn't really help, these kids need visual prompting / visual cues / audio cues. Without this I find myself giving part word answers to assist. With the options I suggested, this would be an absolutely fantastic app to connect the cartoon example/experience to a visual photo expression and a verbal / written word.
PLEASE PLEASE could you think about incorporating these features.
Your apps are visually stunning and the audio is clear and appealing too! Such potential for a market where us parents are desperate for these type of app!!!!
