Spelling Ace 4th Grade

While the content of the App is great, it does have a few glitches. One of the activities has students reading a word and answering whether the vowel sound is “long” or “short”; however, the tops of the letters are cut off. So, for example, it’s impossible to tell the difference between an “h” and an “n”, or a “t” or an “f”. Another issue is with the voice over - which often has such an echo that it’s impossible to hear the spelling word clearly the first time. Luckily, the echo goes away when the word is repeated. For the price, I would expect that the developer would be on top of these defects and quickly clean them up.

I’m a mom and just had a blast doing a lesson with my son. He already learned a few words. The design is awesome. It’s super easy to use, and really focused on learning a lot quickly. The adaptive practice is really cool too. It helped my son really retain what he learned.

This is app is beautiful, simple, and very effective. It teaches spelling as well as vocabulary. My 4th grader has learned a lot already. I recommend it to any parent, tutor, or teacher.
