![]() ![]() You can also turn the speech on or off, and change other settings like the font type, spelling speed, and auto advance.įor now, we have left the default settings in place, but I can imagine that as Little Man gets older and starts to learn to read and spell, we will adapt the settings to suit. ![]() There are lots of other setting options available – you can choose the length of the words that appear (from 3 up to 10 letters), you can choose to have the words appear alphabetically, in order of length, or randomly, you can enable or disable letter hints, or switch the case between uppercase, lowercase, and capitalized. I’ve since changed the same setting in our other First Words apps, because I think at this stage in Little Man’s development, phonics are more important to him in learning to read than letters. In the beginning, we had the voiceover set to letters by default, but in trying out the First Words Feelings app, I switched the settings to phonics, and I think it works really well. The biggest improvement to the First Words apps since my original review is the ability to adjust the settings so that the voiceover reads letters or phonics. While moving the letter tiles around, when you touch each letter, the voiceover states the letter aloud. And when you’re done a short animation plays enlarging the picture while the completed word is read. You use your finger to drag each letter into place to create the word. The basic premise is still the same – the screen displays a Flash card, and the letter tiles for the word are scattered around the screen. The First Words apps have improved since I first reviewed one last year: First Words Sampler review. So I was delighted last week to receive a copy of First Words Feelings for review from Learning Touch.
