The iPhone Mom says Shake-a-Phrase is as silly and one of a kind as it s sentences and a clever way to keep children learning. Fun Educational Apps calls Shake-a-Phrase a must have app App ...
The sentences themselves are entertaining but the things the kids come up with from the story starter mode are even better Fun
My kids hate to read but on a road trip they spent 3 hours reading to each other and laughing instead of fighting Great start I look forward to more apps PM Great fun for the kids
My grandson loves it And frankly Ive learned a thing or two This is just the new kind of thinking we need to make learning fun Glad I got it SO clever
I cant believe theyre charging 2 for this app I shook a phrase about 3 times before I realized that I can come up with more clever sentences that make more sense by the way than this dumb app ever will Dont waste your money StupidWouldnt use it even if it was free
I was hoping to use this with American 4th graders The concept is exactly right but the prompts are too obscure Cool GraphicsHeady Words
I recently had an opportunity to use this app at a family gathering the entire crowd of all ages had so much fun The younger crowd enjoyed the Quiz mode of the app I like all 3 modes of the app I found it to be educational and fun for everyone The silly sentences brought lots of laughter I would recommend this as a great family friendly app Fun Fun Fun
This was my first educational app I downloaded to my phone just to get the writing prompts Then I discovered the Quiz Me section for learning the parts of speech and handed my phone to my students for a quick assessment 6 months later I bought an iPad and now they work in pairs My students absolutely love this app It really inspires and motivates The new update of more vocabulary words is going to rock their world when we return to school Thanks so so much for the update My kids love being able to look up new words Im also using this app now when tutoring and am getting the MarbleMath app too to use Thanks again for the update threefold as I wouldnt have known about new app MarbleMath A testimony to their privacy too Parts of SpeechWriting Prompts
Please consider adding these other parts of speechadverbs and pronouns Thanks Great but
This is a great app but it doesnt cover pronouns or adverbs which makes this a little harder to use at the upper el and middle levels Great app not all parts of speech covered
Needs graduated levels To difficult
I bought this app for my kids and they love it Ive found myself playing it a lot too Its just a great fun way to learn nouns verb adjectives Well thought out and loaded with info What a great app
Stumbled on this last night and decided to take a chance My wife and I wanted to go out for dinner with friends and we needed something to occupy the little man with but at the same time was educational for him It kept him busy while we caught up with our friends The quiz really kept his interest Theres so many great learning apps out there but not many have made him laugh and learn at the same time Only thing is some of the words hes not ready for since hes only 7 but now the dictionary app is finally getting used more often which is actually great Son loves it
My son loves this app The Quiz Mode is his favorite part I like that he learns as he plays Funny educational
My speechlanguage kids really enjoy this app I love that it addresses parts of speech in an interesting way I especially like that it addresses conjunctions which is hard to find I would love if this app including all conjunctions not just yet and and then because my students need to learn all of them Thank you for this app Fun engaging app for language
A fun app for older kids Some of the phrases are hilarious so it gets addictingyou keep hitting Shake to get a new sentence The Monsters category is especially funny I also like that you can save your favorites so you can reread only the best ones But my favorite part is the quiz Its great to have something that interactive to engage kids plus you get to level up by collecting bananas Fun and smart
How does this teach vocabulary By generating random disconnected words What is a gleaming architectfor instance What
This is not your traditional touch the answer Lang Arts app Thats what I love about it I like this app because it makes use of the iOS device you can shake it save the phrases as story starters and more I like posting a phrase online then asking folks to find the nouns and then post the answers later One of the selling points of this app for me is that kids like it You dont have to force them to play it One of the first and most innovative
This app is genius As an adult I still got some answers wrong Keeps you on your toes Love how simple it is to use This is amazing
Great app For kids Teaches me too lol Also I think the set up on the app is great very easy to use Love it
This is a great app for developing vocabulary and understanding how words function in a sentence The wacky sentences bring tons of giggles The Quiz Me part is very well done Highly recommend Fun way to learn words and grammar
It helps everything it sovls your problems so use it Great
My son has Down syndrome and struggles with language so I was pleased to find this He really loves this app The silly sentences have a large range of vocabulary and make learning the basic parts of speech so fun funny that he simply enjoys it The learning part just happens naturally Hope the developer figures out how to apply this to even more sophisticated language learning Love it Great App to Make Learning Fun
When I got this I thought it was more like the mad libs where it asks for nouns etcit isnt It makes silly sentences and then you go from there I think it would be better for smaller sentences as there is a lot of words esp when they dont make sence and if instead of making the kids find the nouns etcit asked them for nouns making the sentences their silliness dindt hold attention for long Room for improvement
This is a cute app It would be five stars if they could add a text to speech element to help my dyslexic kids pronounce and learn new words Cute
Looks good so far but it would be nice if the words could be pronounced when you click on them for students who are unsure of what the word is This would be a fantastic app for my students but if they dont know how to pronounce the words it doesnt really help them learn new vocabulary Words not pronounced
I am a SpeechLanguage Pathologist and plan on using this with my students next year What fun Great tool for learning
Fun interactive and rich with vocabulary shake a phrase is a great way to engage students into learning about grammar and vocabulary Click on a word to get a definition from a fun sentence or play a parts of speech game then shake the device for more funny sentences From an accessibility standpoint I would love to see a setting to turn on or off text to speech for those with reading challenges This way everyone can learn new vocabulary Shake new vocabulary
I teach a Digital Storytelling class to middle schoolers and they often need help brainstorming to get stories going This app is a fun way for them to get physical and get some ideas The different categories are great for them since they all have different interests and can pick what categories they want to write about Ill definitely be trying this out with my students Good writing prompt
Hahahahahaha I know the guy who made this app He is a very mice person
My grandson and I really enjoy this app What a fun way to learn So much fun
I use this daily in class And then when I come home I use it with my kids Weve had so much fun Great fun
I am a teacher and also have a child in 4th grade I cant wait to is this app to help to teach writing skills Wonderful
Love that a theme can be chosen The sentences are a great way to painlessly meet new words Short sweet dont have to make it a lesson at all just fun Fantastic
This app is great creative fun learning for elementary aged children and up With three ways to play Shake It Story Starter and Quiz Me you can see randomly generated silly sentences and tap the words for definitions or in Quiz Me you tap the requested parts of speech nouns verbs prepositions and adjectives Story Starter gives the user randomized creative ideas for starting a story This is a amazing app for creativity working on parts of speech in an amusing way learning new words and their meaning in context and more The abilty to select themes throughout the app makes it even more engaging I recommend this app Writing and Grammar Made Fun
Kids had a blast using this app I learned a few new words myself Gio Fun Learning
I love the range of vocabulary and combination of sentences Great app for getting exposure to a wide range of vocabulary words in a fun way Would really like to see the developers take advantage of VoiceOver I would like to use VoiceOver to help give an auditory cue to a word Im having a hard time reading or understanding I would especially like to see it integrate and work with the definitions Currently if I turn VoiceOver on it will read each individual word but it will also add the word button after each word Adding this feature would turn four stars into five stars Great language and literacy app
One of the best apps in the store Keep on updating Awesome
It auto generates silly sentences thats about it I was hoping the app helped kids create their OWN silly sentences There is the quiz section to identify nouns verbs and adjectives but there a ton of other apps to identify parts of a sentence Save your money and find another app that might actually be useful Dont waste your money
This app is fun As an adult I am having good laughs reading the phrases and can see how this app could be a great learning tool for young kids to expand their vocabulary as they could be entertained for hours Great new app
This app is on the way to being great It needs text to speech capabilities for students with special needs It also needs a level of more simple sentences for younger students It might also be nice if teachers could add their own sentences These suggestions would make this app great Could Be Better
Fun to do with family friends in the classroom We really enjoy this app FUN
I really appreciate the update to this app Awesome job I feel confident I will be able to use this with even my elementary age students as well as middle school aged students in language therapy nowand it wont be scary I love that I can select a theme now such as sports animals and fairy tale You even toned down the monsters a bitI really like that students can read the sentences and identify different parts of the sentences Shaking to get a new sentence is fun too so glad you toned down the creepy vocabulary such as zombie witches and spells and provided options for less Halloweenish vocabulary Great conceptnot so creepy anymore Thank you
What a clever way to learn your nouns and verbs I loved doing the quizzes and it was soo much fun Finally an App that is great for kids to learn and have fun all at the same time Educational and fun
The app is interesting maybe as a game but it is hard to navigate It does not let the students see their mistakes and it does not let you reset the level on the quiz I would not buy the app Review of the app
Dont even bother This app is so lame Not good
I work with 2nd grade students and would love to use something like this as a tool to encourage storytelling as well as language development However the complexitydifficulty of many of the words discourages this I wish there were a setting to indicate grade andor reading level of the player Otherwise I love the creativity this inspires Elementary
ShakeaPhrase is a fun app to get you talking I use this app during speechlanguage sessions for the older kiddos that are working at the conversational level It is a great turn taking activity too The app has a theme section that is wonderful for choosing story starters or quizzes with particular themes animals fairytale monsters sports It has a comprehensive setting area where you can select nouns verbs adjectives prepositions and conjunctions as well as choose the mode of play shake it sentences story starter or quiz This is a wonderful app for vocabulary development too I highly recommend it ACTbyJackieBryla this will get you talking
