Here are our Top 5 educational Ipad apps for use with primary school children, in reverse order:
5. Hairy Letters (by Net Educational Systems LTD) From the very successful Nessy.com company, this app is ideal for teaching letter sounds, and also incorporates a segmenting game where kids can put words together from the spoken letter sounds. Nice graphics and sounds; kids love it!
4. Balloons: Tap & Learn (by Zippz software) Pre-school game based on a simple idea that it's fun and curiously satisfying to pop balloons with your finger! |

I just cannot believe how wonderful this new resource is! Absolutely perfect for teachers and parents to read the superb Oxford Reading Tree books for free! Simply choose the reading age of the child, and you are taken to a library of 'ebooks' where you can read with your child or teach from. Brilliant for smartboard demos, or as an alternative to real books. Additionally, there are activities associated with each book. I wonder how long before they start charging for it? But until then, enjoy it and use it for 'nowt'! |

The new online reading resource from the same people who brought us Mathletics is brilliant value for money. readingeggs.co.uk is a subscription website which initially assesses children on their reading ability, then places them on a 'track' of learning. The multi-coloured, multi-media website is easy and enjoyable to use, and engages children in phonics practice and many other aspects of reading in a way that encourages even the most reluctant of readers. Surprisingly affordable to boot! (Covers up to about Level 5 then there's readingeggpress for higher levels - rolling out soon.) |
