SPELLING MAGIC 2 vs Secret Sight Words

Introducing SPELLING MAGIC 2, a key to your child's future reading success. SPELLING MAGIC 2 incorporates the main principles of the Science of Reading. SPELLING MAGIC 2 is tailored to focus on CVCC (consonant-vowel-consonant-consonant) words like "hand," "sent," and "gift," as well as CCVC (consonant-consonant-vowel-consonant) words such as "spin," "flap," and "stop." These types of words are also known as "consonant blend words" and are categorized into themes for enhanced learning. This app is designed to teach children the sounds of letters and how to construct words. It emphasizes the skill of building CCVC/CVCC words with four phonemes using short vowel words, indirectly imparting the essential reading skill of segmenting. With two levels of challenge, it offers a comprehensive learning experience. In the "Word Building" section of the app, only the components (letters) of the word are used for building, while the "Moveable Alphabet" section utilizes the entire alphabet for word construction. Please note that the purpose of this app is to provide ample opportunities for practicing building CCVC & CVCC words, presenting a chance to expand vocabulary. When tapped, the pictures always pronounce the sound of the word that the app prompts the child to build. The free version of SPELLING MAGIC 2 includes 72 words, while the DELUXE version offers 235 words and provides several choices in the options menu, including two types of voices, three font styles, two letter color options, a special feature to connect letters, and over 160 additional words from the free version. Developed by a team of educators using accelerated learning techniques and Montessori principles, this app has been tested and approved by preschoolers, who found it enjoyable and beneficial for learning letter sounds. We eagerly await your feedback and suggestions as we strive to provide a rewarding educational experience for young learners.

"A great way to give parents a break and let your kid have fun and learn to read at the same time." - Jen, Kindergarten teacher and mom of three. I have a confession to make. Like most kids, my son always preferred playing video games and I was getting increasingly frustrated with having my son waste a lot of time on a fun but mindless game while he was still struggling to master his sight words and learning to read. So I decided to create a secret sight word game and to my and my son's delight, he now has a game where he is having fun and learning at the same time. My sons skills in recognizing Sight Words have dramatically improved since he started playing Secret Sight Words and now I no longer have to feel guilty when I need a five minute break to take care of the laundry or prepare lunch for the kids. I know that they are having fun and that they are learning at the same time. Secret Sight Words is an exciting educational game that helps kids rapidly learn sight words by sight, sound, and touch. Our philosophy is that games have to be fun first because if kids don't want to use them, then you have already lost. Fortunately, kids really like playing Secret Sight Words. The interface is so easy to use that even a 9 month old baby will delight in using this app. FEATURES: • Press on the picture clues to hear the word and then drag the correct letter to the correct slot • You decide what to focus on - turn individual categories and individual sight words ON or OFF from the settings page • Learn by sight, sound, and touch • Fun game play, sounds, and animations keep kids engaged • Fully customizable.
