Amazing mnemonic tool for learning sounds

People out there with crazy memory skills use visual mnemonics to maximise their memory. In this app each sound in English is a multi-modal monster - an engaging and easy handle for kids to hold on to build phonemic (sound) awareness! This is the most important thing in learning to read. Kids (and adults) can blend away on this! So excited to have this! The SSP way of helping kids to read is great - class and home! And will improve your spelling too!
