We're no strangers to the TeachMe series of apps from 24x7 Digital. All of their previous apps have featured on our Top Lists. And the apps have garnered the highest 5 star rating from us when reviewed. So I'm not surprised in the least that their newest app, TeachMe 3rd Grade is of the same stellar quality.
TeachMe 3rd grade uses TeachTech character recognition to interpret the child's written answers, helping to reinforce writing skills while teaching math and spelling.
With six age appropriate subjects and a unique reward system, this app is top of the class.
