## Reading Ninja Description
"Fun for the kids and great for learning to read.  Everyone wins." - Jen, Kindergarten teacher and mom of three.

I have a confession to make.  My son's favorite game was Fruit Ninja and I was getting increasingly frustrated with having my son waste a lot of time on a fun but mindless game while he was still struggling to learn how to read.

So I decided to create yet another slicing game with three letter words to help my son learn to read while playing his favorite game.

My sons skills in recognizing three letter words have dramatically improved since he started playing this game and now I no longer have to feel guilty when I need a five minute break to take care of the laundry or prepare lunch for the kids.  I know that they are having fun and that they are learning at the same time.

Warning: Your child will keep begging for your iPhone or iPad after they try this app.

Reading Ninja is an exciting educational game that helps kids rapidly learn to read three letter words by sight, sound, and touch.

The interface is so easy to use that even a toddler will delight in using this app.

FEATURES:

• Slice your way through all 150 three letter words

• You decide what three letter words to focus on - turn individual categories ON or OFF from the settings page

• Learn by sight, sound, and touch

• Fun game play, sounds, and animations keep kids engaged

• Dynamic game play adjusts difficulty (the number of three letter words) automatically based on player skills to keep kids both challenged and entertained vs. getting bored

• Supports 3 difficulty settings: EASY, MEDIUM, or HARD

EASY MODE:
- Max 1 three letter word
- Three letter words move very slowly
- Great for introducing sight words one at a time

MEDIUM MODE:
- Starts with 1 three letter word
- Max of 3 words on screen
- Three letter words move 30% faster

HARD MODE:
- Starts with 2 three letter words
- Max of 5 words on screen
- Words move even faster
- Words rotate faster too

Adjust difficulty from settings page.

• Wrong answers do not interfere with gameplay, the child can immediately try again and slice the correct answer (most other games are too slow to keep kids interested by interrupting the gameplay and slowly repeating the desired question)

• Play Reading Ninja from A to Z or in random order (adjustable from settings page)

• Multi-sensory learning tool - combining audio, voice, and touch

• Want to work on just a few three letter words?  No problem… head to the settings page to turn entire categories or individual words on and off

• Want to record your own audios? No problem.  Just click on the category and record your own sound for all three letter words

• Supports three levels of difficulty

## Reading Ninja Reviews in United States

### *---- "No sound busted app!!!"
Don’t buy! No sound to teach kids!!!
-- Jckfk fixiziskxkxjxjxix, 2023-10-22

### *---- "No instructions?"
There’s no sound or instructions on how to play. My kid is just touching every word without reading. Is this just an update problem?
-- Very Spinell, 2019-09-25

### *---- "App"
I’m not a fan of this app. I wish there were more option for words. But the app is $0.99. 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️
-- educator ma, 2019-04-18

### *---- "No sound?"
I don’t get it. How can you play if there is no sound.
-- Ann577, 2018-08-23

### **--- "Frustrating for kids when words overlap"
When the words fly across the screen, often times the words overlap ever so slightly and even when tapping the correct word, the game also thinks they tapped the incorrect word as well. Would be better if the words bounced off each other rather than overlapping and avoiding the confusion
-- anourkey, 2017-09-30

### ***** "Thanks!"
Me, my 7 year old, and my 5 year old love this game! They do because it's fun and I do because I know they are learning!
-- GaspVivian, 2016-10-01

### ****- "Ninja words"
I like the ability to control the timing and level but I do not understand why when I chose short a words short e words are mixed in.  I cannot wait to try it with my students.
-- Bongotree, 2016-09-24

### ***** "Great practice app"
This app is just right for many of my first graders who need extra practice with CVC words.  It would be even better if I could add my own words.
-- Loves2Teach2, 2016-09-14

### ****- "Better than Fruit Ninja"
My son loves this game. It's great to see how many words he actually can read. I like that there is a timer, and that you can set the difficulty of the game. It would be nice to customize the words though.
-- Jennipooh515, 2016-09-09

### ***-- "Fun app"
Overall a fun and educational app. Some minor improvements in the speed of words and the pronunciation should help.
-- nyoi, 2016-08-01
