Phonogram Sounds vs Brainy Phonics

Touch a button and hear the correct pronunciation! *Check that your sound is turned on!* This interactive program features clear enunciation of the sounds of the letters and letter combinations (also known as phonograms). Contains all 72 of the basic phonograms as taught in the All About Reading and All About Spelling language arts curriculum. All About Reading is a multisensory, mastery-based program that starts with essential pre-reading skills and continues on to teach all five key components of reading. All About Spelling teaches encoding skills, spelling rules, and multisensory strategies to help your student become a proficient speller for life. Our lightly scripted “open and go” lesson plans and mastery-based approach leave no gaps and make this curriculum a favorite of homeschool families everywhere. Suitable for all ages and learning styles!

Alphabet Letters introduces the 26 basic letters, with three picture/audio/text examples demonstrating each letter. One quiz feature allows children to repeatedly identify the same letter from among four options; a second feature quizze random letters among four options. Both award a gold coin for each successful first answer, a silver coin for success on a second try. A piggy bank cues a screen displaying total coins won. The table of contents will show, beside each letter, from one to five gold stars for correct first answers in a row without any mistakes. Phonics demonstrates 94 of the most common American-English letter/sound combinations, each with three sample words and quizzes in which children can focus on individual phonemes or on random phonemes. In addition to winning coins and stars, a child can win 12 puzzle pieces (two for a correct first answer, one for a correct second answer) to create 94 puzzles, each based on a nursery rhyme featuring the target phoneme. This literacy game complements our sister apps Brainy Words 2000, Brainy Sight Words, and Rhyme A Zoo. We will soon add Brainy Stories 1 and Brainy Rhymes 1. Visit us at hearatale.org.
