Continuing with our recommendations for phonics and reading apps, this week we are introducing Poio. Poio is an early reading and phonics app that teaches kids letters, letter sounds, and words playfully and organically. The focus is on fun, but learning is definitely layered-in. There’s a lot of repetition and reinforcement. This is a particularly good app to use with students who have struggled with learning letters and letter sounds.
The game adapts to your child’s individual level of skill and immerses them in an engaging game world that sparks their curiosity and allows them to teach themselves to read through exploration.Your child will start by mastering the vowels and their sounds before moving on to the phonics of the other letters in the context of bigger words. By the end of the game your child will have written their own fairy tale book that you can read together.
