Introducing "Sentence Reading Magic" – the app designed to transform your child into an excellent reader! Built on evidence-based Science of Reading principles, this app bridges the gap between reading words and reading books, focusing on the crucial skill of reading sentences. By offering a gradual and enjoyable step up from reading individual words, it instills confidence and fosters skill building in emerging readers. With its Sentence Reading Magic feature, this app empowers children to become proficient readers while familiarizing them with essential high frequency words and guiding them from reading words to reading sentences. By providing practice in decoding, blending, and comprehending complete sentences, it prepares young readers to tackle decodable sentences and books, all while boosting fluency and comprehension skills. What sets "Sentence Reading Magic" apart is its incorporation of the five pillars of reading – Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency, and Comprehension. Through engaging games and activities, the app helps children recognize and manipulate individual sounds in words, understand the relationship between letters and sounds, expand their vocabulary within a sentence context, and practice reading sentences repeatedly to enhance fluency and comprehension. The app offers four captivating sentence games that aid in building, reading, and spelling out short, simple sentences. Additionally, it includes five mini-games for learning and practicing the most common high-frequency words, using a phonetic approach to help children see patterns within these words. For those seeking an even more enriching experience, the full upgradeable version of "Sentence Reading Magic" boasts 324 sentences divided into 27 lessons, multiple sound and voice options, and three font choices. However, it's important to note that the app requires children to have a prerequisite skill level of consistently and easily reading 3-letter short vowel words before use. Developed by a team of educators using accelerated learning techniques, Montessori principles, and the Science of Reading, "Sentence Reading Magic" has undergone rigorous testing and garnered approval from preschool children and their teachers in various settings. Your feedback and suggestions are highly valued as we continue to refine and enhance the app for an optimal learning experience.

Costume Maker is an app that allows you to select an actor (or two) and place them against a backdrop and configure their costume in an almost infinite number of combinations. We don't exaggerate when we say an almost infinite number of combinations. Each actor can be either a boy or a girl and one of 6 different races. For each of the 6 items of clothing there are 9 variations (plus an option not to include it), and in addition to its original color it can be re-colored in one of 24 different ways. The actors can then be arranged on one of 11 different backdrops resulting in a possible 52,764,985,218,122,496 (fifty-two quadrillion, seven hundred sixty-four trillion, nine hundred eighty-five billion, two hundred eighteen million, one hundred twenty-two thousand, four hundred ninety-six) outcomes in the Costume Maker app! -- Developed for the Cleveland Play House in Partnership with the United States Department of Education.
