App Description

Help your young learners (ages 3-8) gain important early reading skills with this easy and clear matching game. Recognizing compound words and how they are used is a basic skill necessary for literacy development.

Developed for your iPad, this game will teach and reinforce spelling and literacy.  Compound Words requires 3-5 minutes for a young learner to complete, making this iPad app ideal for students with limited attention spans or those requiring highly visual or tactile learning experiences. Additionally, these activities have been uniquely designed to lock and play only in the portrait mode in order to simplify game play and eliminate an orientation switch if young learners jostle the iPad while playing.

Good Neighbor Press has specialized in the development, illustration, design and production of educational material since 1991. High quality, developmentally-appropriate educational material with clean, charming instructional design is our specialty!
