Apps to help with learning
There are so many different apps to help your child’s learning journey – we could write a whole book on them! Here are just a few ideas to get you started…
ModMath
This is a free iPad app (there is also a paid pro version) that helps kids with dyslexia and dysgraphia do math. It lets you write and solve math problems right onto the touch screen of an iPad using the custom keypad helping kids who struggle because of writing legibility.
Voice Dream Reader
A 2021 Apple Design Award Winner, Voice Dream Reader lets you listen to any document and ebook using text-to-speech. The app is hailed by many as the best mobile text to speech (TTS) app.
Times Tables / Multiplication
Most educational apps that teach multiplication are almost exclusively limited to testing your child’s ability to do calculations. This “Times Tables” app goes one step further and teaches your child the basics as well.
