Confusing

By Cheryl3141 (Pcmac user)

We are using during summer to strengthen writing skills. But I totally disagree with a lot of these answers. There will be one sentence shown. The answers that show as correct are not included in the sentence. They are included in the longer passage at the top. This happens often and I consider your answers incorrect. How can I use this as a learning tool when I disagree?
Great app!

By Theguywhowrotethis123 (Pcmac user)

I’m a speech language pathologist, and I’ve often used this app to help reinforce and practice the concept of this app with my students. They especially love to earn all 3 stars!

i think this app has done a wonderful job helping children develop the ability to speed read. challenged ones it gives them the confidence that they can read as fast as normal kids. useful app for me and my son. My son really likes this app and he usually uses this application everyday to prepare his reading. This app helps him improve his reading skill better
Tricky

By Wolfmother wallpaper (Pcmac user)

So many gotcha moments in this. I have this for my students, and even I can't get through a level without mistakes. Did the text mention bacon? Well- sort of. It was about bacon and cooking bacon but it didn't say bacon in the excerpt. Several students have felt very disheartened by this game. Some of the other apps by this maker are more clear, but there are many glitches. Petty expensive for an app still in beta test mode. If an adult can't win, how is a struggling student going to feel with a whole row of xxxxxxx ? I'm a tad frustrated
