The App keeps track of the time the child takes to complete each game. When the child has completed a line horizontally, vertically or diagonally, they have completed the game. The child must listen to the word the Bingo Bug calls out and locate the word on the bingo card. Word Bingo presents the child with a bingo board which consists of sixteen sight words. They are always trying to beat their best score in order to get a bonus Bingo Bug. The children love playing the games, particularly Word It Up and Word Fling. It also self-corrects which allows the child to work independently. It is very child friendly with bright, colourful and interactive graphics. I have used this App with a wide range of pupils with varying levels of difficulties including children with autism, children with speech and language difficulties and children with moderate general learning disabilities.
