Today's Giveaway: PrepositionBuilder

Today I have SIX codes for, yes you've guessed it, another one of our Top Picks apps.

I think that calls for an exclamative OH MY SQUID.

 

Take a look at the review Heather gave this app. As you all know, it's not easy to get 4 and a half stars from our reviewers but this app did! That's how superb it is!

I'm a big fan of good apps that help with the development and usage of language and this app really impressed me because it is educational AND fun and, according to my kids, it is not boring.

(Boring is a word my children use alot.)

If you'd like to win this app, comment below and tell me a word your children use alot. Winners will be posted on July 18th, 4pm EST, U.S.

PrepositionBuilder™ is designed to help elementary aged children learn the correct use of prepositions and learn how prepositions can change the meaning of a sentence.

During play, the student is presented an image and must drag a preposition to complete a sentence about the image. If the student chooses the wrong answer, the image and sentence change to show the student the proper use of the preposition they chose and how it changes the image. Once a student completes a module, they unlock a short animation that is part of a larger story. They must complete all the modules to see the entire story.

PrepositionBuilder™ offers a rich and fun way for all students to learn proper preposition use.

My boys love the word "NO!" ;)

[Natalie Furman]

Thanks for the opportunity to win this. I love when my daughter says the word "pidey" (long i sound) for spider.

[Valerie]

My kids use the word "cool" a lot.

[Barbara Favretto]

"Mommy" in a whiney voice to rat on each other or complain, but Mommy in a happy and surprised voice when they are excited after I come home from work! A word a many times a day, but never get sick of.

[Elena Louie]

I would love love to win this! My daughter has been saying "please" lately.

[Meredith]

Great app. At my house I am sick of hearing "sick" used as a complimentary adjective.

[Valerie Dorrian]

I'd love this app! My preschoolers' favorite word: TOYS :-)

[JenRay]

My toddler often says, "I don't think so!" Usually he has asked what something is, how it works, what it is for, etc. Once given an answer, he responds with this disagreement. I suppose being contrary is developmentally appropriate! My older child says "actually" a lot. She likes to correct us too! ;o)

[Beth Garrett]

I watch my grandson in the summer and my two year old granddaughter is here every week so I hear grandma a lot.

[Christine]

My son is all about tools, so I hear the word "drill" about 10,000 times a day.

[Rhonda Ripplinger]

This is a must-have app for SLPs! My youngest son is very inquisitive so I hear "How come?" a lot at home.

[Rachel Hemmings]

My kids have taken to calling me "Mummyriffic" - awwwww, love them to bits!

[Holly C]

The word of the day is ZINGO not to be confused with bingo?

[Michelle R]

My son with ASD likes to say "bye" to us, the toys he puts away, the books he finishes, the cats, etc. Have been looking for a preposition app for him -- this one looks great.

[Jennifer Alcorn]

I hear the word "why" a lot. My kiddo needs reasons for everything!!

[Julia]

I hear no lots of times.

[Jennifer C]

NO!!!! From my three year old. And "3" from my 22 month old

[Denise Canning]

the word i hear alot is "NO"

[Michelle Heness]

My son's favourite word at the moment is 'see'. He is really beginning to use more words, listen and understand what others are saying. And he's very inquisitive, so wants to see what we're talking about.

[Trina Hemmerling]

All three of my kids favorite word is "Mommy!!!!"

[Peggy Welker]

My daughter gets "behind" and "in front" confused when we are in the van driving. "Look Mommy at the cars in front of us, they are going to eat us." But she means the cars behind us!

[Nancy Ramirez]

The word is "but why"

[Muhammad]

Everytime I heard she says Yooohooo!

[vicky castle]

Rhiannes most used word at the moment just two weeks into the holidays is "bored" Dans has remained unchanged for the last couple of years as "biscuit"

[Jenny Woollard]

I'm struggling to get my son enthused to learn to read as well as practise speech therapy - this app looks like it would help in both areas! Looks great
