TeachMe: 1st Grade App Reviews

I purchased this for my seven-year-old to use on my iPod Touch from time to time. I wanted something to give a little boost to her math and reading comprehension. Initially, there was some frustration - the character recognition isnt very good, but I realized that my daughter was not writing her letters in the standard way. It actually helped her improve her letter-creating, both upper and lower case. The math is also good, and has improved her grasp at subtraction. Motiviation comes from winning coins that you can then use to fill an aquarium with fish is great incentive for small children The things I didnt like so much: 1) I see a lot of repetition - the player is asked to spell the same words over and over. Maybe not a bad thing, but a bit more diversity would be good. I am not sure if things get more difficult as they progress to higher levels. 2) I wish there was a grade-2 version of the game

Again I love this program... The visuals are amazing for children including those with special needs. Being a parent of a special needs child its very hard to find programs. This one is also on the top of my Favourites.... Any chance you will make another math app counting up to 100 with adding and subtracting using visuals???? Also love how you did the Dolch words, and spelling.... Amazing program in my books!!! Well Done!!!

You might want to wait for bugs to be fixed.

I love this app!! Great for my 5 yrs old son!

So after 5 mi.mutes of lovingly the writing part with your finger quit working....... Any idea how to fix it?

5 Star App! I even use it with my kindergarten class. They love it & parents have asked for the name of the App we play in class.

This application is great . my daughter spends several hours to learn math and writing. I have bought three version of this app{Toddler, kindergarten, and 1st Grade}The last one is the best because kids can spend points to purchase their favourite items. Please add DIVISION and MULTIPLY to math section.

I am SO impressed with this educational app, and the amount of details and work they clearly put into it. My daughter loves it and is actually upstairs right now continuing to play it so she can win more points. There are four sections in this app: Math - addition and subtraction; Dolce words - both sight words and getting the child to spell. When she does it correctly, she wins a point. After three points, she wins a coin and she can spend her coins in the Shape Store, the Fish Store or the Art Store where she can buy stickers, fish or shapes - and the fish actually swim around, you can buy food for them and feed them, etc. I was so impressed with this app that I bought the JK one for my son. The kids love it so much that they fight over who gets to play with it next - little do they know how much theyre learning while they use it. My daughter, who usually hates homework, has been now playing it for over an hour. Shes seven. Thank you and I hope you do more apps for older grades too!!

Bought this app for my 6 year oldstand he loves it! First thing in the morning he wants to play it and first thing after school he is begging for the phone. A great learning tool and very addicting! This is one great app!! Way to go! Hope you can make a grade 2 version soon! Highly recommended.

I purchased TeachMe: Kindergarten and TeachMe: 1st Grade, my grade one twins use this app everyday to further their knowledge. I love it! PLEASE, PLEASE, MAKE A TeachMe: 2nd Grade!

Buy it. Well worth the price.

really good app, hope there is a second grade coming aswell!

My 6 yr old daughter is in french school and this app is great for her English reading. Weve used the preschool, kindergarten and grade 1 apps and they are all amazing apps. My daughter trades tv time to play this app! Great idea to reward them with silly bands! Lots of educational content and well put together! I hope a grade 2 app is in the future!

Great for the kids!!! There are apps that are fun, there are apps that are educational and then there is this app... Both fun and educational!!! You would do well to continue the series through all grades. Parents like me would buy the entire series... The kids love it!!! I am waiting for grades 2 and 3...

Please make one for second grade

My girlfriend is an elementary school teacher and they use this at her school for the grade ones. I downloaded this for my 6 year old daughter and it is excellent. She loves it so much that she has created four accounts, one for each of he favorite stuffed animals and she switches between them trying to outdo the skill level of the last round she played. The incentives are well implemented. The print recognition is excellent, works very well.

My six year old daughter loves it! Great content, she loves earning coins to buy rewards. Best 99cents spent.

My son adores this! His progress is astounding!

All 3-apps, Toddler, kindergarten, and grade-1 Have been Absolutely wonderful for both my 3 & 5 year olds. Its a truly excellent blend of all the basics and for the price it should be showcased for all parents to see. Simply the best learning app I have found in the past couple years.

Our 6 and 7 year old daughters love the teach me games. These apps are very effective at teaching new concepts because the children love to earn coins. We are amazed by how much they learn from this app. The teachers voice is very clear and easy to understand. I highly recommend this to anyone. Our kids play it everyday for at least 10 minutes and sometimes up to an hour.
