This company has two major apps that I absolutely love Extremely well thought out Are used them in my classes and for me it may be easy best way to help students understand the sound system and to truly spell I cannot recommend this app highly enough for parents teachers anyone wants to learn the sound system and to really spell I also command of the company on the beautiful accent It is authentic                     Superb jingle567

I work with a non verbal autistic boy This app is excellent and he loves it Thank you so much                     Excellent Msnger4him

I like the design of this app However there are some pronunciations are wrong when reading two letters together It is not good for the kids who just start to read         Design is good but some pronunciations are wrong RQChen

This app is great for helping my kindergartener learn how to spell and read words that she doesn t know It gives her a bit of independence where she doesn t have to ask daddy for help every time she gets stuck She can just type in the word and listen to its pronunciation This enables me to get other things done around the house Awesome                     Just what I was looking for mrqharris

We are just beginning to use this app for its intended purposes as we have spent a good deal of time just playing with the movable alphabet screen My entire family enjoys creating messages for each other for fun My daughter who is using this for spelling is delighted by the animations that tell her when she s correct and I like the simplicity of the layout It is colorful but not too busy In addition to the many other assets of this app mentioned in other reviews I must add that I have had a completely positive interaction with the developer I had a few questions which he quickly and thoroughly answered                     customizable spelling app BHSteele

This is exactly what I was for to help my son                     Perfect Redfox231

I have been a speech pathologist for over 30 years and am always looking for new ways to help non vocal clients communicate One young man would only use his alphabet board with his father because he didn t find that others were patient enough He spelled out THEY DONT THINK I CAN TALK I CAN TALK I AM SMART With WordWizard he can take as much time as he needs then press Talk My only suggestions to improve the app 1 Move the Talk button so clients with fine motor issues don t keep hitting Settings 2 The Space key in Qwerty is great but also needed in ABCD layout 3 Provide a way to try other layouts e g for clients with better vertical than horizontal scanning ABCDEFG HIJKLMN OPQRSTU VWXYZ Thanks for a great app Ross                     Helps adults with autism to communicate RossB-B

I am a Special Education teacher working with K 1 students Over the years I have downloaded over 850 educational apps Word Wizard is one of a handful I use every day I love that we can now put in multiple users Support is wonderful very fast and responsive I use the app in two ways The spelling quiz is very easy to customize and terrific for independent practice at any level I also use the movable alphabet for kids during reading time If they can t remember a difficult word or a name we just type it in and kids can touch it as often as they like If kids come to a word they don t know they type in a few letters or the whole word and are able to keep on reading without asking for adult help An outstanding app that just gets better with every update                     Fantastic Reading Buddies

Great phonics tool I also love the spelling lists I can create Definitely worth the money                     Great for at home or in the classroom sldn7

This is really a great app Highly recommended for children learning to build words Would like to see a more natural voice but it s easily 5 stars as it is Really a must have in kinder and 1st grade classrooms                     Excellent Kickstand54

One of the best apps for kids to learn their spelling words                     Great app May zepol

Word Wizard is a must have for parents teachers and clinicians working to improve a child s ability to write and spell It s open ended user friendly and customizable design insures repeated use There are so many options to tailor it to an individual child s needs and it grows with your child Highly Recommended                     Incredible App bajebooth

Word Wizard is an attractive and colorful app that really draws you in The Movable Alphabet activity is really fun for kids of all ages and lets kids play with words at their own pace The Spelling Quiz is great for practicing common words and you can even create your own words lists THIS IS A REALLY BIG UPDATE New activities voices keyboards and word list features A                     A fun and unique way to practice spelling DanRP

This app has horrible pronunciation of words so unless an adult is with and able to interpret it s not very good It also does not say numbers correctly 274 should be read as 2 hundred 74 not 2 hundred and 74             Okay as long as your child is supervised BCWN

This is is one of the very best if not the best out there for teaching kids how to read and spell With auditory feedback at the letter blend word phrase and sentence level the support for phonemic awareness is beyond compare It s valuable to ALL students whether they attend regular education classes or receive special education supports and services                     Phenomenal app for ALL children learning to read and spell lasenders

I use it for my 1st grader and kindergardener I type in my 1st grade son s spelling list on Mondays and he uses the app all week to learn his new spelling words He has gone from struggling on his spelling tests to getting 100 great app Thanks                     Awesome app Improved my son s spelling test scores EVF23

This app is junk if only it could pronounce junk correctly It is really more confusing to a student then a helper I bought it to help for studying for spelling tests for my 2nd grader It was not able to differentiate between blue and blew and when dragging the letters up to spell blue it pronounces the blends of letters and said blue at blu which is not the correct spelling for blue so my child didn t know if she was right or wrong since it said blue to her Maybe good for very very easy words but not for most the English language pass on this one a total waste of money     Just terrible Mommygamer01

It is as good and reliable as the reviews indicate Could you add a 3rd element The ability to crate a list is powerful Makes me want a reading list flash card like The word from a list could come up on the screen then wait silently for the student to read it If the Student can not read the word they press on the word and listen to it Is that another App Sure would be helpful all in one App                 Loving it Eze II

We use this app in our homeschooling daily I like that I can put my own word lists in for my children to work on My girls like the play time when they finish the quizzes The support is also very good for this app                     Great app Alib26

As a teacher of students with physical impairments I love this app The option to show only the letters needed provides another great scaffold to get children started I love the different letter sizes and the option to use keyboard emulation for some students                     wonderful starter keyboard Jmb2000

Thank you so much for this app I can tell a lot of thought and detail went into it My child has a developmental delay which makes spelling reading challenging so I was very happy to find a spelling app that fits our needs perfectly I was impressed with the built in lists which are plentiful and nicely categorized Though geared for a much younger child I believe it will keep my kid s interest for some time as we can create our own user defined lists of his favorite things like WWE wrestlers pop stars etc The explosion of stars upon the correct spelling of the word for the I won feeling is also a nice touch When my kid was younger it was a big thrill for him to know he succeeded each step along the way                     Great App for Developmentally Delayed Child Altered Arts

This app is awesome for beginning readers spellers You can use it to sound out words copy written words hear it pronounced have a parent spell out a word have kiddo try to sound it out before touching it to hear the word so many learning possibilities After my son realized he could make it say funny words like fart he was hooked                     My 5 yr old loves it TmrJL

I do not recommend letting a young reader fly solo with this app My 8 year old is not a great speller and after only building two sentences the app voice does not pronounce words correctly when words are spelled correctly It is fine for BASIC phonics but it does not recognize vowel combinations in words such as roar Roar sounds as ra or which sent my daughter on a search for an incorrect spelling If I sit with her the app is a lot of fun I just recommend sitting with your child as they use this and be ready to correct pronunciation Mom sounded as muh ahm             Be careful when building words Mshuggi

The kids love using this app in school                     I love using this app with students NOVAOTRL

Word wizard is worth every penny and then some I love that the vowels on the moveable tiles are a different color than the consonants The voice is very human like and easy to understand Love that you can add your own word lists The company support is very responsive During the summer I requested a way to access the usernames without having to enter a parent password each time and they added that capability in a recent upgrade For our LD population this app is invaluable                     App solutely great app PHPSTech

Loved the Crosswords app by this company so I got this one too This was a great purchase It s lots of fun and very educational too                     Excellent app for kids 6States

I ve been playing with this one for a while now Their really aren t any other apps like it and it is great learning fun Pronunciations are tough in any computer program but Word Wizard has clean solid sounds and accents It s a great learning app for kids The App has gotten a few updates already and is getting even better                     Really neat app for kids OneAppTooMany

I use this app with my SPED students Because the app says the sound of each letter my students are able to more easily spell their spelling words                     Great West on

Teaching remedial spelling to a 5th grader with dyslexia this app has been a savior It helps kids to identify when they ve left out a letter or put in extra letters which are very common mistakes for those with dyslexia It also removes the teacher parent or caregiver from the corrective process helping the student to see their errors more clearly without anger sadness or despair they feel from being corrected It s an excellent app Every special Ed teacher MUST have this                     Great for dyslexia lklipfel

I retract my previous review as the issue with the app continously crashing upon opening has been resolved The other reviewers has described the app perfectly in the sense of what it does on a personal note the Word Wizard has more than exceeded my expectations and I would not hesitate to recommend it                     Update Ann2287

This app is a very simple way to acquire skills in spelling Versatile and very informative In fact some adults may find this app very helpful I recommend it                     Best way to learn spelling Alexia3311

Word Wizard Talking Movable Alphabet Works well for learners at multiple levels The app has the ability to change the background or add choose grid paper You can also have the letters show up in QWERTY style instead of ABC order There is a reward for correctly spelled words The app says the sound the letter makes as you place it on the grid or paper and will change once you add another letter that may change that sound example a g followed by an I changes sounds from a hard g to a soft g You also have the ability to change the tone and rate in which the speaker talks You can check the progress for each list The best feature of this app is that I can put my children s spelling words I am teaching them that week to work on This app is well worth the price                 Word Wizard Talking Movable Alphabet and Spelling Tests for Kids Shellylu3

Word Wizard by L Escapadou is a fun app I recently acquired Remember those Speak and Spell toys Well this is an updated version of that You can play around with the alphabet and make your own words or you can take spelling tests There is a built in word list with all kinds of choices from the Dolch word list consonant vowel consonant words and the 1000 most frequently used words You can also make your own lists There are plenty of options for settings such as voice features accessibility features and specifics for how the program interacts with the user I would highly recommend this app for young children and for those with special needs I don t recommend this app for hearing impaired unless they are able to hear and interpret the audio instructions because they will not be able to hear the voice feature which is a huge component of this app                     Word Wizard Ho_bug

This app has been a favorite in our home since it was first released and it just keeps getting better I love the tons of custom features this app provides from tracking to voices word lists and even animation settings You would be hard pressed to find a better way to learn spelling and create an engaging way to get kids to want to spell than this app We even use it with my five year old who has limited speech abilities to spell what he wants because its so fun for him                     Keeps getting better Cgregoryrun

This is a great for spelling Your child can use it movable alphabet mode or quiz mode This app is very customizable and can grow with your child Word Wizard also provides spelling practice with a list of more than 1 400 questions and answers and the best is that you can add your own words to create any spelling quiz and track the progress of your kids thanks to detailed reports Love that you can add your own childs spelling list to the app                     great for spelling Spanglersamantha

It is fun to play around the the letters to spell words and hear the voice read them If you click on the Spelling Quiz option you can choose a built in list or click on My List to make your own from your child s spelling list You do not have to record your own voice like other apps The computer does it for you and the pronunciation is great not computery This is must for any public school student or homeschool student It is absolutely worth the price                     Finally Samwadz

I give this five stars I have a special needs son and this app has done wonders for his spelling and his spelling tests I would love to see a math version of this                     Excellent Mega cash

Love this app for both my 8 year old hyperlexic daughter with autism my 5 year old Oldest daughter uses it for labeling answering questions making requests I have not seen any other app that gives her access to a keyboard while integrating the phonetic sounds of each letter she picks word she creates This feature allows her to hear when she s making a mistake with her spelling and correct it immediately Awesome I use it for my younger daughter to create sentences using her spelling words She doesn t get to ask me how do you spell without trying to figure it out herself on the app Then when she gets the sentence all set she copies it onto her paper using the model One request which Pierre says he ll get to soon is to make the lowercase A visually look like the one that the kids learn in school as opposed to the one seen on computers with the hook at the top My daughter spends an inordinate amount of time trying to replicate that bc she thinks it s the right way to make the letter All in all great app Great support                     Gets better better AppMama2

I love this ap it is the best educational one I ve come across great practice for my 12year old autistic child and requires little supervision or urging and for my 4 year old non autistic as well The voice function and choices are terrific I love this app                     It is great Oolollo

This app is great My three year old and my six year old both play with this                     Great Blinded by newness

My son has learning disabilities and this app has been an amazing tool in helping him learn his weekly spelling words Best app I ever spent money on                     Great luem

Great app My 6 yr old son just loves it He was really having trouble blending words and this app just made it really fun We thank the team for all efforts done I would love to see an option for my son to write his personal weekly spelling words along with this app That would be awesome and we challenge your team to allow us to continue to support what you do Million thanks                 Great app PONC@16

It looked great but then there was no sound What a waste     No Sound 0856@

As a phonemic awareness teacher this app would be more helpful if it would have digraphs as an option such as ch sh etc The way it is now when you spell a ch word for example chip such and so on it says the k sound first h until they are placed together when it finally says ch This is confusing for students especially students with reading disabilities or auditory processing weaknesses trying to learn how to spell or blend read sounds that are formed with more than one letter This applies to all sounds made with more than one letter not just ch it would take too long to type them all here             Has potential Cookiemonster822

I got this for my six year old with special needs and it is a great app I love the ability to program his spelling lists in He enjoys this much more than using regular flash cards Awesome                     Love this app Penipincher
