SPELLING MAGIC 3 for Schools vs Phonic Flashcards

Introducing SPELLING MAGIC 3 – the key to unlocking your child's future reading success! SPELLING MAGIC 3 incorporates the main principles of the Science of Reading. SPELLING MAGIC 3 is designed to focus on words with multiple syllables, providing an engaging platform for learning. From everyday words like "pretzel" and "button" to compound words such as "bobcat" and "hotdog," this app covers a wide range of vocabulary, all grouped into themed categories for easy organization and enhanced interest. With a strong emphasis on teaching letter sounds and word building, SPELLING MAGIC 3 not only helps children learn the sounds of the alphabet but also indirectly teaches essential reading skills like segmenting. The app offers two levels of challenge to cater to different learning abilities. In the "Word Building" section, children use the components (letters) of the word to build it, while the "Moveable Alphabet" section allows them to use the entire alphabet for word construction. It's important to note that SPELLING MAGIC 3 aims to provide ample opportunities for practicing building multiple-syllable words, even including words that may not be part of a young learner's everyday vocabulary. This presents a unique chance to expand their word bank and vocabulary. Additionally, tapping on pictures will prompt the app to pronounce the word, aiding in pronunciation and comprehension. The free version of SPELLING MAGIC 3 offers 72 words, while the DELUXE version boasts an impressive 335 words, along with a range of customizable options such as two types of voices, three types of fonts, two letter color styles, a special feature to connect the letters, and a lesson progress tracker. This version includes over 260 additional words compared to the free version, providing an even more comprehensive learning experience. Developed by a team of educators using accelerated learning techniques and Montessori principles, SPELLING MAGIC 3 has been thoroughly tested and approved by 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.

We've been making educational software for twenty years, and this is by far the best educational app we have ever made. We wish every child could use it before they start school. Why are Phonic Flashcards better than regular flashcards? Because when you learn with Phonic Flashcards, the phonemes (letters and digraphs) are sounded out! The word "fish" becomes "fff" "i" "shhh", with all words and phonemes recorded by a professional voice artist, helping to build a solid phonics foundation for reading (and spelling) success! All our apps are designed to maximize learning outcomes, while also being super easy to use. Parents do not need a degree in order to use Phonic Flashcards to teach their child how to read. Phonic Flashcards makes a great classroom activity for literacy centers, as well as for one-on-one teaching and assessment, and also whole-class instruction when teaching short vowel sounds. Ages 4-7 plus remedial Includes 200+ flashcards, mainly common nouns. Each interactive card features a picture, which you can tap to hear a fun sound effect. Choose whether to have the words voiced, sounded-out, or both! Tap the letters and digraphs to hear each phoneme. Blend them together to sound-out the word. Hide the picture to administer a reading test. Begin with the sounds of the alphabet. Next learn to read CVC words, focusing on each short vowel sound. Then progress on to 4-5 letter words with blends and common digraphs. Choose a phoneme/sound from the "Digraphs Menu" which includes: ck, sh, ch, th, ng, oo, ee, oa, ou, ai, ea, oi, oy, ow, aw, ir, ar, or, and ur. Full details of all of the Word Lists can be found at: www.phonicflashcards.com As well as FLASHCARDS, there are three additional activities: SHADOWS - a multisensory word-building game which is visual and tactile, while also reinforcing phonemes. MATCH UP! - simply involves matching words with pictures. Turn off the sound cues to test word recognition. WHICH WORD? - a game-show style phonological awareness quiz, to test students on initial sounds and rimes. Upon completing each activity, children are rewarded with a simple tap-tap style arcade game of their choice, Frog Hop or Fish Food.
