ABC Spelling - Spell & Phonics for Negative User Reviews

✓ Incorrect teaching techniqueI teach Kindergarten and I was surprised by the incorrect teaching techniques. I played the game for a short time and found that this program was teaching the blending of words incorrectly. For example, this program says the individual sounds of c-a-r, but blends the sounds together to say car. This is incorrect because the letter a does not make a sound when you read the word car since it is being “bossed” around by the letter r. Words with ar, er, ir, or, and ur are part of the “bossy r” family where the vowel is never heard. Therefore, words with these bossy r letters should never be taught by blending the individual sounds together of c-a-r the way they did in this program. It is misleading and doesn’t teach the child why suddenly they don’t hear the a sound in the word car. Also, the program sounds out g-e-m, using the g sound individually. However, when you read the word, the g sound becomes a j sound in order to say the word correctly. However, the program does not teach the child it suddenly changes from a g sound when read individually to a j sound when read as a word. Why.....because this program does not teach the soft vs. hard g sounds and what affects the change from a hard g sound to a sound g sound. My recommendation is the developer should have an educator look over their teaching techniques for accurate learning.Maggie9094Version: 1.3.7
