Montessori Words helps kids learn and
understand two fundamental concepts:
•
First, the app helps kids understand that words
are made up of sounds/phonics (phonemic
awareness). For each word, your kids can touch the
empty rectangles where letters must be dragged to
complete the word, and hear the sound the
corresponding letter(s) produces.
•
Secondly, the app helps kids memorize the phonics
associated with letters by providing a
phonics-enabled alphabet where kids can touch each
letter and hear the associated phonic.
Montessori Words allows you to select words
according to their difficulty or sound categories.
• Level 1 displays a three-letter word with
no difficulty for beginning readers (CVC
words).
• Levels 2 and 3 offer more complex
words that contains more complex phonics (as long
vowels sounds or blends). • Alternately, your
child can choose from 44 sound categories--choose
words that contain a specific sound (for example,
long a, “k” sound, and so on).
To create an enjoyable experience, the app also includes sounds, animations, and interactive visual effects that are displayed after a word is completed.
Choose capital, lower-case, or cursive letter display for a greater challenge.
Montessori Words also features a movable alphabet that allows open-ended activities for young children learning their letters.
