Here’s a short, rhyming story about me: There once was a girl named Jackie, who watered her plants til they were tacky. She stayed up all night, feeling something wasn’t right, and thought to herself, “I wonder if they get too much light?” It wasn’t very clear, no, not at all, why her plants shed ... Read More

I think reading is tantamount to many good things in life, not just knowledge and literacy, and it has, for quite awhile now, unfortunately been backsliding in favor of more immediate gratifications, like computer games, tv shows, sports, simply hanging out with friends. All of these are good and well, but it always strikes me ... Read More

Meant to be used in tandem with a more experienced reader, the app displays three-letter words only, with definitions for each, for the user to learn and eventually ... Read More

On Tuesday, I wrote a review of ABC Shakedown, a flashcard alphabet app that kids could use to work on their pronunciation skills, language skills, and word-object agreement. I recently became aware of another app by I-itch, called ABC Shakedown Plus, that acts as an extended version of the former – extended not only in ... Read More
