The Puzzle Box component develops observational skills through shape and frame tray puzzles. The Lite version includes a free sample of six words and six puzzles. Apple has featured ReadnLearn apps in the Kids and Education categories. ________________________________ BRIEFLY Greek Words and Puzzles keeps children engaged through a star reward system. Children earn a star for completing each word or puzzle successfully. Every five stars, they can redeem them for toys and decorative items for their own interactive iPad room, choosing from four room colors and over one hundred different items and toys. A clean navigation interface gets children into uninterrupted play within a few taps. ________________________________ GREEK PHONICS ReadnLearn uses the systematic phonics method recommended by leading educational authorities. Children start by learning the sounds of individual Greek letters, then discover how those sounds form syllables and words. This method is proven especially helpful for children with autism, speech delay and dyslexia. ________________________________ THE MISSION ReadnLearn exists because of Marios. Aris's son has autism and speech delay. Every design decision in every ReadnLearn app comes from watching Marios learn. What works for him works for every child who learns differently. readnlearn.com/the-mission-autism-educational-tools/ ________________________________ FEATURES ● Star reward system: children earn stars to decorate their own interactive iPad room. ● Four (4) room colors and over 100 items and toys to choose from, endless combinations. ● Four (4) player profiles for personalized learning. ● Verbal instructions and motivational voice feedback in Greek or English. ● Children pick up where they left off or complete levels at their own pace. ● Monitor each child's learning progress at a glance. ● Six words and six puzzles in this Lite version.
