"I Read" helps children practise reading in a playful way, with colourful pictures and friendly characters. Six levels train different reading skills: • True or false? – read the sentence and decide if it matches the picture • Missing word – pick the word that completes the sentence • Pick the sentence – find the sentence that fits the picture • Create a sentence – put the words in the right order • Sentence memory – match sentences with pictures • Read and answer – read a short story and answer questions Children earn coins and medals and unlock reward pictures. A figure progress row shows how far they have come in each exercise. Answers are marked clearly with a check or a cross, and cheerful sounds keep children motivated. A parent gate protects the settings. The app supports VoiceOver, and the language can be set to English, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian or Finnish. No ads and no in-app purchases.

About

KooTreeni

Features
Read full description

Is your child still mispronouncing the K sound? KooTreeni's motivating exercises will take them step by step to a fluent K sound using methods developed by Finnish speech therapists. The sounds are almost invariably learned through regular home practice, and KooTreeni is an effective tool for this. The application contains versatile tasks for practicing pronunciation through various gamified exercises, following the structure used in speech therapy for learning K. The application also contains comprehensive instructional videos from a speech therapist to support parents. KooTreeni is suitable for children of all ages. However, we recommend that an adult and child use KooTreeni together, so that the adult can support the child when necessary and at the same time spend quality time learning together.
