Spanish Words and Puzzles is a ReadnLearn app that teaches phonics, letter names and spelling in Castilian or Latin American Spanish to children from preschool to Grade 1. 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 Spanish 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. ________________________________ SPANISH PHONICS ReadnLearn uses the systematic phonics method recommended by leading educational authorities. Children start by learning the sounds of individual letters, then discover how those sounds form syllables and words. Spanish is a transparent language — letters consistently map to the same sounds — which makes phonics a highly effective approach for Spanish learners of all abilities. This method is proven especially helpful for children with autism, speech delay and dyslexia. ________________________________ 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 English, Castilian Spanish or Latin American Spanish. ● 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. Thirty words and forty puzzles in the full version. ● More words and puzzles available through in-app purchase. ● Adaptive learning through three difficulty levels for each game: SPANISH WORD BOOK — three levels for preschool through Grade 1 (ages 2–7): ○ Level 1: Learn letter sounds with hints and free letter placement. ○ Level 2: Learn letter sounds without hints and free letter placement. ○ Level 3: Learn letter names without hints, strict left-to-right placement. PUZZLE BOX — three levels for observational skills: ○ Level 1: Pieces not rotated, picture hint available. ○ Level 2: Pieces not rotated, reduced picture hint. ○ Level 3: Pieces randomly rotated, no picture hint. ________________________________ DISCLOSURE At ReadnLearn, your child's privacy and safety is our priority.
