About the app

Everything you need to know about Starfall It's Fun to Read.

Description

The Starfall™ It's Fun to Read app contains a free selection of activities from Starfall.com. This app is the third step of Starfall’s free Learn-to-Read Sequence, which includes all of the basics for learning to read. No internet connection required. After reading about artists and musicians, making a magician, reading poetry, laughing at tongue twisters, mixing paint and solving riddles, your child will agree: It's Fun to Read! With a basic understanding of letter-sound relationships, your child is ready to explore a variety of genres and topics that will expand reading vocabulary, comprehension, and world knowledge. The games and activities within demonstrate the joy of reading through rhyme, alliteration, spelling patterns, and word play. The stories can be read aloud to model the qualities of fluent reading: intonation, expression, inflection and rate. Users can enable or disable the AutoRead feature. Speaker buttons are supplied for fluency when AutoRead is off. The app includes: *Creative Corner, Magic, Music, Poetry, Tongue Twisters, and Bird Riddles. *An AutoRead feature to model fluent reading, which can be disabled once your child is able to read independently.
