I ABC-klubben, Den magiska kulan, får man träna bokstavskännedom, ljudanalys, ordavkodning och att sätta ihop bokstäver till ord. En del barn känner nog igen bilderna och övningarna från skolan. ABC-klubben är ett väl spritt läromedel i läs- och skrivinlärning för förskoleklass–årskurs 3. ABC-klubben består av barnen Asta, Bea och Cesar. I appen ber de spelaren om hjälp med att samla magiska kulor. Kulorna som spelaren samlar ihop byts in mot bokstäver. Med hjälp av bokstäverna kan spelaren läsa de hemliga meddelandena i klubbrummet. Appen är indelad i sju nivåer med ökande progression. När en nivå är avklarad låses nästa nivå upp. Appen innehåller: - Alfabetet. Här tränas kopplingen mellan bokstavsformen och bokstavsnamnet. - Hitta ordet. Här tränas ordbilder (automatisering av småord som och, hej, den, det, kan, inte). - Ljudjakt. Klicka på bilder där ljudet ingår. - Vad hör du? Här tränas ljudanalys (att kunna dela upp ett ord i olika ljud). - Skriv. Här tränas koppling ljud och bokstav samt syntes (att kunna sätta ihop bokstäver till ord).
