not thought through

The app is not thought through - they need to break the objects down into levels, three letter phonetic words, blends, then digraphs. The blends and digraphs should have the sounds together that make the specific sound like "oo" in book, or "er" in lobster, etc... having all the letters make the phonetic sounds can be confising when teaching blends and diagraphs. You dont phonetically sound out these non phonetic words. Lastly, I wish there was a self check option like the Montessori crosswords app so they can make sure they spelled a word correctly.

On the "writer" section it would be nice to be able to click on the words once they are assembled and have the word read, not each individual sound. I feel like this app was not put together well. I am a 3-6 Montessori teacher with a 3 and 5 year old that attend the school and they did not enjoy this app. I feel that changes can be made to it so we can utilize it more as a learning tool and not just a silly game.
