Product Review~Phonics and Reading with McGuffey

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Most adults have heard of or seen the famous McGuffey''s Primer, which has taught tens of thousands of children the joy of reading for over more than a century.  LiteracySoft has now brought this most successful textbook of all time to contemporary technology with the Phonics and Reading with McGuffey app.

.This app guides students step by step and at their own pace.  It is flexible enough to be used with adult students, ESL students, Dyslexic learners, and homeschoolers.

This app includes:
  • All 52 McGuffey Primer lessons
  • All 44 letter sounds of English and their graphemes
  • 60+ letter sound animations
  • 400+ practice word vocabulary
  • 9000+ nonsense word audio dictionary


My youngest son, Chad, has Dyslexia, and  so I am always on the lookout for ways to help him make reading easier.  He's been working through the lessons, and although he already knows how to read, these lessons have been great for him as he struggles with letter sounds and rules.  The lessons are full color and vibrant, and the activities are made to be fun while learning-always a bonus!  Now that he is out of school for the summer, we plan to continue through the Phonics and Reading with McGuffey app. 

Click here to go to LiteracySoft's website and learn more about Phonics and Reading with McGuffey app, as well as their other products. You can even try out a sample of the program on iOS, iPad, Android and PC. 

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
