I am preparing to tutor a pre-adolescent child who is still acquiring phonics. I hope to integrate some digital technologies into my intervention plan as a way to reduce the social stigma often experienced by older, struggling readers.
The reading center at my university just acquired a set of iPads, and I would appreciate hearing from the Classroom 2.0 community about age-appropriate apps for intermediate-level readers, ages 10 and up. I already browsed the forums and found several discussions about early and emergent readers. How about older children?
Hello Jennifer,
I have developed an app called Phonics and Reading which was designed for struggling students and more specifically struggling older students. There is also a lite version which you can try for free.
EdIncubator" projects are designed to help education projects or initiatives build advisory councils with real educators, administrators, parents, and students giving real feedback. Current projects are below.
Groups interested in participating can contact Steve Hargadon directly.
