iAmReading 4+

iAmReading app is based on experience in a primary Montessori classroom. It is designed to teach new readers how to read repeating sounds in the english language. It is designed to be used for the beginning reader age and up.

The word groupings are based on repeating sounds or phonetics. In a classroom setting each page in the app is an actual card with the list of words. An adult would then sit with the pupil as they pronounce the words on the card. In this app the student can do it by themselves and then press the word to hear the correct pronounciation to check their progress. The main user interaction is found in the Words tab on the iPhone. On the iPad the main word selection is on the Choose a word grouping window. The user can click on a word grouping icon to display the words. If there is more then one set of words of the grouping like the long e vowel sounds then another window will appear to further specify the long e vowel word grouping. When the user picks one of these groupings a window with a list view of all the words will appear. To hear the repeating sound select the Sound button at the top bar. To go back to the previous window select the Done button. To hear a word in the list just select the word with the row and the app will pronounce the word. If you are using an iPhone there will be more then one page of word groupings. There are 64 different word groupings and around 8 or more words in each word grouping.
