Sentence Reading Magic empowers kids to become better readers as it helps them construct and read sentences; it provides the missing link between reading words and reading sentences. It is a platform for upcoming readers to build the skill and composure they need to progress from reading words to reading books. It provides readers with a fun, progressive way of learning words accompanied by short sentences—a critical element to boost a kid’s confidence in reading sentences.

What Users Love About the App

“This app has 2-word sentences and 3-word sentences that all feature CVC words. There are also some sight words used in the sentences. There are more options and sentences that can be bought through the app.”

“This app really helped with starting to read sentences. Some sight words were thrown in for good measure, too.”

“This app looks like an activity book for learning children. They can make sentences, make their more understand about those flashcards and the most important is they can apply their knowledge. I like those sound effects (after completing a sentence).”

“My son has autism. I wanted to expose him to read in a new way. I didn’t want another communication tool for simple needs. I wanted for him to experiment with language structure and finally read. Exceptional app from preschool university. Thank you.”

“I had high expectations based on the description of the app and it has exceeded them all. Really helpful when teaching my younger siblings to understand words and phrases. And they seem to enjoy the pictures. Wonderful app!”

What Users Dislike About the App

“My one complaint is that sometimes there is no sentence building. For example, “a big ram” is not a sentence and has no punctuation. There should at least be a separate category for it.”

“Has potential but can only use it after students learn all the short vowel sounds. If you added more “sentences” and gave the option of which vowel sound to use, it would be a great app.”

“I was surprised to see a spelling error in the instructions of a sentence-building app. The beginning is spelled with two n’s, not one!”

“The App is a solid idea, but there are errors in the subject-verb agreement in your two-word sentence building. i.e. Jon reads not Jon read. Hope you are able to make the corrections.”

“This app is mostly good with pronunciation. It’s not so much a sentence builder as it sells itself to be.”
