Genre: Education
Price: £0.69
Release Date: 09 May 2012

'We’re really impressed: they’ve turned the alphabet into cute characters who sing... It’s a marvellous, creative idea, and it stands out as one of the best.' - www.appsplayground.com

'A fresh and original app that defies easy categorization... it’s a phonics-based, music-mixing, jamtastic alphabet app. With 26 friendly letters at your child’s fingertips, he can create an endless number of jazzy musical combinations. If he touches a letter, it sings its phonetic sound in a continuous loop. He can then add letters, make words... It’s so danceable!' - www.bestkidsapps.com

Did you know that letters could sing? Welcome to the Ministry of Letters' Singing Alphabet. We have worked with experts in child development to ensure this app will engage children with the world of letters and word making in a completely new and imaginative way. Our letters are fun and friendly characters that children will love playing with.

Each time a child presses a letter it will sing its phonetic sound. Your child can press as many letters as they want and the tune will always sound harmonious. Children can enjoy creating new songs with different combinations of letters or singing along with a single letter and practicing its sound!

They can explore making their own words by pressing the pen at the bottom of the screen to show the letters they have chosen. They can hear what the words sound like when they sing and enjoy playing with different combinations. Practicing the weekly spelling test with your child will never be so enjoyable!

This is a fun, engaging app to encourage children to really enjoy the alphabet and have fun making words. It entertains a range of ages with younger children discovering the alphabet for the first time and older ones competing to make the best words.

To find out more about us and download fun resources to go with the app please visit www.ministryofletters.com

Couple of our great reviews:

"This app is so freakin' creative and fun!! I can't wait to unveil this to my first graders next week. I know they're going to enjoy being creative music makers!"

"This is an incredibly creative, fun phonetic learning app! I am using it with my 12 month old daughter to work on her ABC's and she loves dancing to the beat"

"This is a brilliant app, a really fun way of playing with letters. My 3 year old daughter can't stop playing it, and even my 1 year old sings along! Amazing!"

**UPDATE** Whilst troubleshooting some of this issues reported with sound we discovered that some users had accidentally 'muted' the app using the lock screen switch. The easiest way to check is by looking in Settings, under General and if "Use Side Switch to:" is set to "Mute" as opposed to "Lock Rotation" you need to change this.
If it is set to "Mute" then even with the volume indicator set to full you will not be able to hear anything.

How to Play and Win Math Bingo
The object of Math Bingo is to get a pattern of five Bingo Bugs in a row by correctly answering math problems. Math problems are presented at the top of the game screen. Feedback is presented at the bottom of the game screen. Correct solutions to problems answered incorrectly will be displayed.

Scoring
The score in Math Bingo is determined by the time to complete a game plus a two second penalty for each problem answered incorrectly.
Example:
Time to complete game 0:45 seconds
Incorrect answers: 3
Score: 45+6=51

Player Profiles
Math Bingo saves player information with custom player profiles. Each player profile consists of a unique name (up to 20 characters) and a fun cartoon avatar. The player profiles display total number of games played, total number of high scores achieved, and total number of Bingo Bugs collected. The guest profile does not store any information and therefore cannot achieve high scores or collect Bingo Bugs. The guest profile is useful for adults who want to play Math Bingo without their scores going into the scoreboard.

Selecting a Game
There are five different games in Math Bingo: Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division and Mixed. Players will be prompted to select a game type before game play.

Selecting a Level
There are three levels of game play in Math Bingo: easy, medium, and hard. Players will be prompted to select a game level before game play.
Score Board
Math Bingo displays high scores in the Score Board. There are four different Score Boards: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Each Score Board displays the top three scores for each level: easy, medium, and hard.

Bingo Bugs
Bingo Bugs are rewards for achieving a high score. A player who earns a high score will collect a Bingo Bug! Players can collect a variety of Bingo Bugs and interact with them by tapping the Bingo Bug button in the player profile or by tapping the My Bingo Bugs button after playing a game. HINT: Tilt your device to make the Bingo Bugs move around, tap on a Bingo Bug to make them giggle and spring!

Settings
The settings menu can be accessed by clicking the information button on the lower right hand side the introduction screen. The settings menu will allow you to reset all high scores and to delete player profiles.

Genre: Education

Release Date: 07 December 2008

”There’s no denying that “abc PocketPhonics” is an amazing app. A universal app—it works with both iPhone and iPad—PocketPhonics teaches the basics of reading and writing to young kids. Most surprising? It seems to work.” 148apps.com

Letter sounds. Handwriting. First words. PocketPhonics teaches all three. Kids, parents and teachers love it. That’s why it’s a best-seller.

Aimed at kids aged between 3 and 6, and using the best ‘phonics’ teaching techniques, PocketPhonics introduces kids to each of the key letter sounds. As they learn the sounds, the app guides them how to write each letter through its unique follow-me arrow. This makes it easy to learn how to correctly form letters. There’s nothing else like it in the app store.

?What experts say?
? Parents’ Choice Recommended Award Winner
? Editor's Choice Award 2011 from Children's Technology Review
?“If you are working on phonics for your kids, this is the best application to have.” Technology in Education
?“This app feels like you have a teacher or a tutor working with your child one on one.” pragmaticmom.com
?“PocketPhonics is seriously educational and I think it’s a terrific tool for helping early readers. You can tell that a ton of thought and research was put into it and best of all, they talked and listened to teachers. It shows.” iPhoneMom.com

We've also had coverage in the Daily Telegraph, Guardian, Wall Street Journal, theweek.com and more than 20 other media outlets.

?Designed and tested by teachers in the UK?
Synthetic phonics is recognised by educational authorities around the world as the best method for teaching children how to read. PocketPhonics is designed and tested by British teachers who use phonics in the classroom and follows the UK’s national curriculum. It is primarily aimed at pre-school kids and those aged up to six or seven.

To understand the best educational practice underpinning abc PocketPhonics, order the FREE GUIDE to teaching kids to read from the app.

?Letter sounds?
Simply put, phonics (letter sounds) help children learn to read by understanding the sounds that letters make. PocketPhonics teaches the letter sounds for all the letters in the alphabet, using a UK voice (a primary school teacher).

The letter sounds are taught in the same order as in school, using the same synthetic phonics approach mandated in the UK’s national curriculum. It also teaches over 30 letter sounds that come from combining letters together (like ‘sh’ and ‘ch’), because they are key to reading so many frequently-used words.

?Letter writing?
PocketPhonics visually demonstrates how to write each letter. Children enjoy practicing their writing by tracing the letter with their finger on the screen (similar to a Montessori classroom where children learn first to trace letters with their fingers). PocketPhonics works with iPhone-compatible styluses.

PocketPhonics will also check the accuracy of your child’s writing (can be switched off and the tolerance varied – using the player's settings).

?170 First words?
Using a unique, “letter sounds make words” spelling game, children learn how to sound out and spell over 170 frequently used words.

?PocketPhonics puts you in control?
From within the app, you can:
? Customise it to the needs of your child through its wide range of settings (e.g. lowercase, uppercase, or cursive letters)
? Get help or give feedback
? Order our free guide on teaching kids to read

Give your child a head start – buy abc PocketPhonics now.

*** Optimized for the new iPad ***
*** Featured by Apple as Best Apps of 2010 and Best Apps of 2011 ***
*** The first app on the AppStore with real 3D TV Support ***

Have you ever built a Solar system model? Cups, bowls, and papier-mache balls are in the past, because Solar Walk is a time-sensitive accurate information-packed interactive model of the Solar system and the Milky Way galaxy.

“Amazing graphics, very informational, and very accurate. One of my favorite apps already! Worth the $2.99. The fast forwarding time interface is awesome!!!” by staceelo

"Solar Walk app is Out of this world :)
This app is so cool when hooked and played through an HDtv. The detail, music, and 3D toggle really set this apart from other apps like it." by HARR1SON

“This app is too amazing for words. Use it all the time and was worth the $.” by ilikeapps1234567890

“I showed my class this and they were all amazed! The planets looked so detailed and the Sun's glowing and fiery animation really captivated everyone's attention (including me!) I'd recommend anyone teaching or learning about the solar system this app. Five Stars!” by Kevan M

This 3D Solar System model lets you navigate through space and time, see all the planets in close-up, learn their trajectories, inner structures, history of their exploration, points of interest and more. It even has detailed 3D models of the most interesting man-made satellites. Use 3D mode to get a more realistic experience and zoom out to view and spin the entire Galaxy!

WHAT EXPERTS SAY:

“Zoom from Mercury to Pluto (which makes the cut in this app), passing each planet’s moons along the way. Because Solar Walk knows what time it is, the planets are in proper orientation to the Sun: Earth is dark where it is currently night and gradually lightens to daytime on the other side,”© by Sam Grobart from The NYT.

“Instead of exploring the night sky and deep space, you get to tour our Solar system in luscious 3D graphics. The iPad version is breathtaking with crisp graphics and beautiful color. The smooth finger controls combined with the spectacular graphics make this a perfect demo for the iPad. Dragging your finger to fly around the planets is a bit intoxicating, and I'm impressed with the smooth animation.” © by Mel Martin, TUAW.


MAIN FEATURES:
• GALAXY view - absolutely magical zoom out to view the whole galaxy option.
• TIME MACHINE - set any date you want including even minutes and take a travel through space and time.
• MOVIES - explanatory movie collection about the Earth’s phenomena.
• SATELLITES - real-time trajectories of the most interesting artificial Earth's satellites.
• LOCATIONS - arrow will show your current position on the globe, plus names of the biggest cities of the Earth, as well as sights of the Moon, Mars and Venus.
• INFO about all planets - general info, its name, its mass, radius, distance to the sun, internal structure with the picture and science missions.
• MOONS of DIFFERENT PLANETS: select a planet like Earth, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars or Urano and observe how many moons they have and their track around the planet. Select one of the moons and learn.
- MIRRORING - wirelessly mirror the screen to an Apple TV 2.

*No Internet connection required*
--------------------------------------
ATTENTION!
Mind that to use the 3D mode you will need a pair of cyan-red 3D glasses. And, yes, we know that Pluto is no longer considered a planet, but by popular vote it has been added to the Solar System Model anyway.

Progress is saved, so your child can put the app down and pick it back up again whenever they want, fitting the opportunity to learn into any small amount of time available.

This app makes learning times tables fun, by combining a great storyline and fun characters with all the tables they need to learn, from the twos to the twelves.

Once your child is more confident with their tables, the "Mix it up" mode tests them randomly on all their tables and the "Reversed" mode gets them to fill in the gaps in the questions - an excellent way of consolidating their understanding of the multiplication process.

A "Tricky Tables" mode tests them on any questions they may have got wrong in the past.

Up to 4 children can be registered on any one iPad, meaning they can make progress at their own rate without affecting the other players.

The Squeebles make learning fun!

Using dot-to-dot puzzles, DotToDot numbers and letters teaches the sequence of numbers and letters by creating puzzles of dots that kids can’t wait to join up! Whether it’s counting “1,2,3”, learning the various times tables, or remembering each letter name in alphabetical order, DotToDot makes learning fun.

Choose what kids practice or use the app’s age-based settings. A four year old might practise counting “1,2,3” through simple dot-to-dot number puzzles, especially designed for younger fingers. If they touch the right dot, the app says the number next to it. If they touch the wrong dot, the dot wriggles to let them know and the correct dot starts to flash.

Similarly five year olds might practice letter names in alphabetical order. In the same way the app creates puzzles, but with letters instead of numbers next to each dot. Through this exploratory play kids learn how to count and know their ABC off by heart. They soon begin to associate the spoken letter or number with its written form. As they complete each puzzle the app celebrates their success.

For an older child, you might set the level to practise counting in 9s with more complicated dot-to-dot puzzles. The extensive range of settings in the Parentzone enables you to adjust the level of each game specifically for the needs of your child. You can also switch the timer on and they can compete against themselves and their siblings. Or why not increase the challenge by making them beat the unlock time to move onto the next puzzle? You’re in control.

The aged-based settings take the recommendations of the UK’s National Curriculum as a guide to know what children should know, at what age. You can also choose between a UK or US voice.

?From the makers of the best-seller abc PocketPhonics?
DotToDot numbers and letters is the perfect complement to our best-selling app abc PocketPhonics (which teaches handwriting and letter sounds using synthetic phonics).

This app is ideal if you’re child has progressed well with learning the phonetic sounds of letters (as taught by abc PocketPhonics) and now needs to learn the letter names.

Experts recommend not including letter names when teaching synthetic phonics as it can confuse children by introducing too much information at once. For that reason our PocketPhonics app doesn’t teach letter names so children can learn to read more quickly. DotToDot numbers and letters introduces the letter names, as well as get them started on counting and learning their times tables. A great next step.

According to Gizmodo..."Who is it good for ? People who like dinosaurs. People who like interactive encyclopedias. People who like new things. It's an app that lets you play with dinosaurs man, who's not going to like that ?"

Time to start your own dinosaur zoo of fully animated dinosaurs. You can throw fish to swooping Pterodactyls, tease the Euoplocephalus, try not to get your fingers bitten by the Monolophosaurus – and if you roar, they roar back. But beware, if you make them really mad, they might smash the glass and get out!

Each dinosaur comes with information from the latest paleontology discoveries, plenty of fascinating facts, prehistoric maps of where they lived and where they died, and spinning 360-degree clay models overseen by the world’s leading paleontologists.

The app comes with a starter-pack of six animals. New dino-packs are released regularly, so you can collect and grow your own zoo of dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs are alive again... and this time, they’re in your iPad.
