About this app

Do you want to help your child read and spell in English? Oxford Phonics World is the first step on your child’s journey into English.

Oxford Phonics World is a three-level phonics course that leads you through the sounds of English. Children over three years old learn sounds step-by-step with a tried and tested methodology. Games, puzzles and fun animations motivate children to discover and remember the connections between sounds and the letters that represent those sounds.

With Oxford Phonics World your child can:
• learn the English alphabet
• understand the relationship between letters and their sounds
• blend sounds together to read words
• learn through play, with a range of games

The three levels have over 200 words and fun animations:
• Level 1 teaches the English alphabet and its sounds, introducing over 100 words along the way
• Level 2 teaches how sounds combine together with consonants to form more complex words (e.g. ram, can, cup, jet, and many more)
• Level 3 introduces different spelling variations of long vowel sounds (e.g. rain, seed, night, bow, cube) and introduces over 75 new words

Extras:
• complete all units of a level to win a trophy and certificate!
• each level of Oxford Phonics World contains an Extras unit with fun activities such as a Picture Maker and Animation Gallery
• Unit Access allows you to switch between following the curriculum in order or moving between your child’s favourite activities

I thought this was a totally free learning game so why after 1 on every level is it saying that i have to pay for all the rest. very disappointed by this game i sld not be expected to pay for an Oxford game when i can get all the Oxford Owl ebooks for my girls to read online for free.

I am a kindergarten phonics teacher. This app teaches the wrong sounds. It teaches the schwa sounds and not the correct phonemes. Don't use this app as it reinforces poor phonics.

The app is based on the book (including the audio) developed by Oxford University Press in consultation with kindergarten teachers and other experts. If you could give us a specific example of what you think is wrong that would be helpful. You can contact us here: https://www.oxfordphonicsworldapp.com/contact.html
