App Description

A "lite" version of Spell-A-Word, our large-print, early academic program for beginning to advanced letter users. It uses an errorless learning method. Spell-A-Word works on identification, spelling, & word recognition (for reading).

WORKS WITH EXTERNAL KEYBOARD, such as our Colored-Rows BigKeys, or any Bluetooth keyboard (or *any* USB keyboard)! Or choose from the regular iOS keyboard, or Spell-A-Word's own 1-row-at-a-time one).

Scaffolding (as much help as needed but as little as possible) is embedded so as to help those with significant cognitive challenges.

The full version allows you to easily enter lists of spelling words/phrases for the learner to practice and be tested on. WordLists consisting of hundreds of words/sounds/pictures are available from the developer's website at no charge.

Spell-A-Word even has special feedback for blind learners.
