Short visits, sounds first, no reading needed. 20 WORD GAMES, 1,900+ LEVELS Every game has 30 levels, a level map, chests and a boss to beat. - Letters: Big & Little, b–d Detective, ABC Express, Letter Workshop, Key Quest - Spelling and sight words: Sight Word Splash, Spelling Bee, Rule Rescue, Word Ladder - Word power: Hungry Monsters, Syllable Chop, Compound Crash, Prefix & Suffix Lab - Meaning: Homophone Duel, Sorting Station, Opposite Island, Silly or Sensible, Sentence Doctor, Dictionary Dash, Word Hunt NEW: TRACING ABC Trace capital letters A-Z, handwriting Aa-Zz and numbers 0-9 with a finger. Then try the worksheets on screen, the same ones as the printable lessons: short words (CVC), blending, sound boxes, word families, b and d, tricky words, digraphs and magic e.
