Top 11 Phonics Apps

Phonics instruction helps children learn the relationships between the letters of written language and the sounds of spoken language. Children are taught, for example, that the letter n represents the sound /n/, and that it is the first letter in words such as nose, nice and new. We've found 11 great apps that give kids practice with basic phonics skills, including recognizing the letters of the alphabet, learning upper case and lower case letters, alphabet matching, and word building. These apps help kids work on listening skills while also practicing spelling and building their vocabulary.

It auto advances every 15 seconds. This interactive game also teaches upper and lower case letters. Price: $2.99 Grade Level: Pre-K-2nd Device: iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch

Word WagonWord Wagon helps kids learn about letters, phonics, and spelling with Word Wagon.

In the first two levels, kids can match the letters to form the words; in the latter two levels, there is no visual cue, and kids have to arrange the spelling of the word on their own. There is also a nice variety of word topics such as animals and food to choose from. The level of customization makes Word Wagon a good fit for kids at different skill levels.
