The Reading Practise App
Fonetti is the interactive reading app that listens to children as they read aloud, and holds their attention by changing the word colour in real-time as they read along.
It makes reading fun and gives grown-ups reassurance that they are providing safe screen time; and gives kids self-confidence and a solid foundation for life-long learning.
World Book Day
On 4th March 2021, we’re hosting an online extravaganza for pupils.
We’ll share stories from children’s authors, who will also answer questions from young readers. We’ll also give children the opportunity to take part in a competition, in order to become a published author… and there are ways to take part!
What is a Listening Book™?
Listening Books™ are a new, refreshing alternative in the world of reading, one that children love.
Imagine a story that reads with you. Now meet Fonetti:
Fonetti makes reading fun.
When children read Listening Books™ out loud, our patented speech recognition engine recognises what they’ve said and if it matches the story. When they say the words right, the words turn green and if not, they turn grey. If a child is stuck, they can simply double tap for a clue.
Listening Books™ capture the magic of printed books with a difference: your child’s voice brings each story to life in front of their eyes.
