I will be using Square Panda Multisensory Phonics Playset which is available Now for Holiday Purchase in our Homeschooling Classroom when I am working with Lily.
EdTech Literacy Platform Designed to Help Young Children Learn to Read
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 24, 2019—Square Panda, creator of an award-winning multisensory EdTech literacy platform aimed at kids in pre-kindergarten to grade 3, announced today that its phonics playset is available for immediate holiday purchase from Amazon, the Apple Store, BJ’s Wholesale Club and the Square Pandawebsite.
“Unlike toys that a child plays with for a while and then ignores, Square Panda is an ideal holiday purchase—combining the fun and engagement of a favorite toy with a research-based curriculum that helps kids master key reading readiness skills,” said Andy Butler, CEO and co-founder of Square Panda. “What better gift for the young children in your life than the gift of literacy?”
The Square Panda playset combines fun, adventure and sound teaching principles to build literacy skills in children ages 2 to 8. In conjunction with an iPad or Android tablet, children can use the Square Panda playset to access dozens of free games that playfully engage and teach them literacy fundamentals that include phonological awareness, phonics, spelling, print concepts and more.
In addition, a newly released app offers playset users access to SquareLand, an engaging world of mini-games, stories and cartoon characters that guide children through an adaptive curriculum with the goal of growing their reading skills.
“The new app ultimately will become our single, secure gateway through which kids and parents can discover a host of additional Square Panda literacy games and tools for teaching young readers,” Butler said.
‘Adaptive’ Curriculum Customizes Experience for Each Child
Square Panda’s phonics playset and SquareLand online adventure world foster literacy through adaptive learning, in which the games reinforce curriculum and learning patterns based on each child’s mastery of the skills presented, and through multisensory elements that let children touch and place plastic letters on the playset.
The more that a child plays with the Square Panda playset, the more the adaptive system learns and customizes the experience for them. The games ensure that children are always in an optimal learning zone: challenged, but never overwhelmed.
The Square Panda playset includes:
● Bluetooth-enabled playset with a new smart screen
● 45 Smart Letters
● Compact stackable design
● Drawstring storage bag for letters
● Parent Portal to monitor children’s progress in mastering literacy skills
● Compatibility with most versions of iPad and Android tablets, and many smartphones
In addition to the SquareLand mini-games, parents can download additional free learning games available on the App Store or Google Play for use with the Square Panda playset.
