## What is Phonics Station for Guided Reading & Articulation?

"OMG Thank You! These guided reading books are perfect for my struggling readers." - Kelsey Starr - Kinder teacher and mom

Phonics Station is a comprehensive collection of sound spelling cards to use while learning phonics, reading, and spelling.  

When it comes to learning phonics, repetition is very important, especially for students that are already struggling.  These workbooks are designed to give you students extra practice in a fun, simple, easy and engaging way.

Please ask your students to say each page following the pattern below.

"A says 'a' as in apple.

I use these workbooks to reinforce new phonic sounds.  They are great for daily repetition and reading practice.  

The best way to first use this app is together with a student.  Whenever they see a page, ask them to read each page.  If they get stuck, they can tap on the word or phonics sound to get help.  Once a student has been introduced to the app, they can also continue using it independently to gain confidence in their reading, spelling, and phonics.

### 2/5 — Good information but boring

*2017-01-22, version 1.0*

The information is good but my 4 year old was extremely bored. Needs to be more interactive.

### 3/5 — Works

*2016-12-04, version 1.0*

Ok

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-11-20, version 1.0*

Great app for teaching sounds and how they fit together. Good visuals. Interactive.

### 5/5 — Perfect fit

*2016-11-16, version 1.0*

This app is a perfect fit for my striving readers in my kindergarten classroom.  I can match their needs with the options of this app.  Nice!

### 5/5 — PHONICS Station

*2016-11-15, version 1.0*

As a grandparent who watches both a pre-k and kindergarten student five days a week. This app gives me a handle on phonics which is how the schools teach now a days
In the 'old days', we had a long list to memorize. 
Oh, and both of my grandchildren 💏 love this colorful talking app. My iPad is in use while waiting on the bus. Thanks!!!

### 5/5 — Perfect for my needs

*2016-11-15, version 1.0*

Working with a kiddo on the numerous sounds these letters can make. Seeing them (with a picture) is extremely helpful for my visual learners.

### 4/5 — Great App with one minor flaw

*2016-11-15, version 1.0*

Really like the app. Will be great to use with my first grader and sixth grader who both have dyslexia. Only thing that could be improved is some vowel patterns (chunks) are white letters which makes the black letters in the rest of the word stand out more. This is going to draw my kids attention to the wrong part of the word. Would be better if you stuck with only colored letters, no white, for the vowel patterns (chunks). Thanks for the great app.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2016-11-15, version 1.0*

This is great to help kids make the connections they need for phonics. I only wish it had sound.

### 5/5 — Another winner!

*2016-11-15, version 1.0*

Love the option to read silently or touch the screen to hear and figure it out if stuck, or check your own work. SUPER!

### 4/5 — Good but....

*2016-11-15, version 1.0*

Please double-check or fix the "ow" sound (as in cow). The app says audio "o". 

AND the "u-e" sound (as in cute). The app audio says "uh". 

Otherwise, helpful app for practicing phonics! Thanks so much!
