Help with Words and Sentences app for iPhone and iPad

Help with Words and Sentences provides primary age children with extra practice in their early literacy skills, to improve confidence and reinforce learning at school.

Help with Words and Sentences is games-based, with personal score targets. The focus is on the most common issues encountered during the early years of learning to read and write, including sentence construction, spelling and reading for meaning. The content is structured within seven graded levels of difficulty.

Using Help with Words and Sentences

1. There are 12 different games, all easy to play. Children soon learn to play them and then want to replay over and again to achieve faster and better results. That way they benefit through repetition and self-motivation.
2. The games are played against the clock, with one point scored for each correct answer going towards a session score target.
3. Each game contains a bank of questions from which six are randomly selected each time a game is played. If children give a wrong answer to a question then the question will be repeated immediately so that mistakes can be put right straight away. However if children really are stuck then they can ask to see the correct answer, but at the cost of one penalty point deducted.
4. Children decide their own score targets. That way they are motivated to keep improving.
5. Every screen has an online help screen. These are aimed primarily at adult supervisors.
