Playing with the Sight Words Hangman app gives your child an educational
advantage over their peers. The Sight Words Hangman app utilizes 250 sight
words--the most commonly used words in the English language. Sight Words
Hangman entertains and engages your child, while increasing their vocabulary,
spelling and reading levels.
Sight Words Hangman is an application where your child learns the most
frequently used English words without sounding the words out letter by letter.
The game is simple, utilizing touch screen operations, colorful and comical
graphics to persuade your child to play and learn. Sight Words Hangman begins
by ”Selecting a List”, and touching the word “Repeat” to listen to the word.
The child hears and views the word then makes their selection by pressing on
the word that they think is correct. If the child chooses the correct sight
word, then they automatically advance to the next word. If the child guesses
the incorrect word, a body part of the hangman shows up on the screen and then
the child is given 5 more opportunities to guess the correct answer. If the
child would like to hear the sight word again, they can press the “repeat”
button to hear the word again and pick another answer. The child can see their
score at the end of the game so they can try to improve their score the next
time.
Features:
- Kid Friendly Interface
- Large, easy to read font
- Children hear & see the words
- 25 Unique word lists to choose from
- Kid-Tested & Parent Approved
About SightWords as stated on Wikipedia.org…
Sight words are pronounced without decoding the word's spelling. Effectively,
an alphabetic writing system is made into an ideographic writing system.
Unfortunately, speakers of ideographic languages have to spend a much longer
time learning to read because of the sheer volume of symbols they must
memorize. A common first sight word is a child's given name. Beginning readers
are at an advantage when they learn to read sight words that occur frequently
in print such as those included on the Dolch and Fry word lists.
Suitability:
- Children who want to learn on their own
- Kindergarten to First Grade Children
- People learning the English language
- Entertain your kids with learning
- Teachers or Parents who use flash cards
