With vibrant graphics, expertly crafted minigames, and real-time progress tracking, Word Tag is more than a game—it’s a powerful tool to boost your child’s reading comprehension, emotional expression, and academic confidence. And the best part? Kids love it so much, you’ll be saying “yes” to just 5 more minutes!
Game-Based Learning That Works
Word Tag is designed to be irresistibly fun and deeply educational. It uses spaced repetition—a proven learning technique aligned with the Science of Reading—to make sure new words stick in your child’s long-term memory.
Through four engaging minigames, kids will encounter the same word multiple times in different contexts:
· Word Jumble: Unscramble syllables to learn pronunciation, spelling, and meaning.
· Word Pairs: Match words with synonyms to reinforce understanding.
· Words in Context: Complete sentences using the correct word in context.
· Pop Quiz: A fast-paced challenge to review and recall learned vocabulary.
Each game builds upon the last to strengthen vocabulary retention and comprehension.
Real-Time Progress Tracking
Parents can monitor learning from day one through the Progress Report, which shows:
· Newly mastered words
· Educational activities completed
· Stars, coins, and rewards earned
Every child has a personal Word Bank, where learned words are stored for ongoing use—perfect for practicing at the dinner table or during bedtime chats.
