Awesome App
Pocket Charts! Pro is such an awesome app. All of the pocket charts are included in this one app. Students are provided with immediate feedback to their answer. The system provides the student with errorless learning so the student proceeds only when they get the answer correct. No more learning the wrong answer! The games provide a wide selection of learning levels so all students can be incorporated into the learning activity. It is self-explanatory so parents can use any of the games for at-home practice or exploration of different skills. Although it is rated for Kindergarten and First Grade, my students at the preschool level will enjoy the variety of games presented while becoming prepared for Kindergarten. Will be sharing this with parents and staff!

A fantastic app for learning kindergarten skills!!
Pocket Charts! Pro offers all 21 pocket chart educational games, usually sold separately, in one app. Each one is designed like the traditional pocket charts you see in elementary schools, but in the form of apps. They are more portable, compact, and much less messy! The 21 games in this app help children working at the K to 1st grade level work on colors, shape matching, sorting, letter matching, beginning letter sounds, vowel sounds, positional words, consonant blends and digraphs, word families, addition and subtraction, compound words, rhyming words, and much more! Plus, there is an administrative section where you can add multiple students, track data for each one, enable practice mode, randomize questions, and set a passcode,so that students do not change any settings. The bright and engaging colors, crisp graphics, and easy navigation for children, are a few things that make this educational app a winner for early education. Also, there is no rush to "get to the next level", which allows kids to learn at their own speed, which is ideal for this age group. Each app is usually sold for at least .99, so this a great deal for teachers. In my experience, the app is also appealing and appropriate for some children with special needs who are working at the kindergarten level. I recommend this app. There are no IAPs or ads, but there are open social links on the home page under the tiny info button. I would like to see those secured.

We Love Pocket Charts
My son and I love this app. This is a great app for homeschooling young children as well as special needs children. I integrated this with other work for my special needs son. He learns very well with visuals and for the price I decided to give this a try and I'm glad I did. Thank you for this app, I hope you can create more apps or add-on's for this app. For instance, calendar days of the week, months of the year, sight words, cvc words, seasons match up and so much more.

Digraphs do not have /a/ /u/ sounds!
The sound pronunciations for the digraphs are wrong. Do not add short a or short u sound after the digraph sound. This is very confusing to learners. Please do your research and teach your voice model the correct way to model sounds. Other than this major flaw it is a good app.
Wide variety of skills
This app is great to work on a variety of skills. I like that I can own one app and I don't need to have all the other apps in this series.

We love this app! The only thing I would like even better is if i could individualize it for each student so they could continue to play at their own level. Well worth the money
Good but needs to shuffle the order
I love having 20 pocket charts on my iPad with no small pieces to keep track of. The option to turn the audio support on or off is great. My only concern is that the games present in the same order each time you play which makes it less educational, especially for the alphabet games which present in ABC order.

This is great for the classroom!
I think this app is great for educators.With 20 different literacy and numeracy activites - how can you go past this one. My learners require visual supports and positive reinforcement and this meets that requirement beautifully. The activities are easy to understand and progress in difficulty as the user moves through it. Check it out!

Great app. But could use some changes
I love using this app in my special education class, BUT I wish it was customizable and that there was data collection for multi users built in. With those it would be an amazing app!
Good App
I already had pocket chart beginning sounds and blends, with this app I was able to get the rest of the pocket chart apps at a low price. It isn't my favorite app for my special needs class, but it is good and it is educational.
Very nice app
I downloaded Pocket Charts! Pro after learning about it via the MomsWithApps AppFriday promotion. I'm very glad that I got the app. It looks nice, sounds great, is easy to navigate, and has so many wonderfull activities for kids to learn.
