Foundation/Key Stage 1 APPS

Jirbo Match - memory game:
The cards are a good size for children with difficulties in their motor skills. However, with 30 cards on the screnn and the animal faces in pastel shades with similar shapes, I thought this a little tricky for the targetted group....I mean to say my score was rubbish! probably more appropriate for children a little older and then not convinced the graphics are appropriate....
2.5/5

Wheels on the bus - Duck Duck Moose Design - music, animation of a children’s favourite:
LOVE THIS APP!! Interactive animation of a new and extended version of the wheels on the bus. lots to find, push, poke etc. Music in several languages or several instruments! Excellent for Key stage 1/2 MFL. Excellent graphics, well worth the 59p!!
5/5

Colorama - Artizia.com - coloring in
A good selection of general and themed templates for children to colour in. A huge range of colours and the facility to save their image. An all round good app
3.5/5

Fingerspelling words and phrases - BSL alphabet and phrase guide...someone correct me on this one....I can only get the sign language to 'spell out' i.e. letter by letter, phrases. I think the basics of SL for letters works really well, what I would like is a bank of 'phrases' I would rather know how to say 'Thank You' in 2 words not 8 letters...unless someone tells me something else, not overly impressed.
2/5
Pocket Phonics - Apps in my pocket ltd.
