Description
Ollie’s Handwriting and Phonics helps kids become successful readers – with errorless teaching! Children practice letters and sounds, read custom phonics words, and spell sight words without reinforcing bad habits. Created by a Kindergarten teacher with a Master’s in Early Childhood Education, Ollie is based on the most successful research-based national handwriting and phonics programs.
Featured as a top “Classroom Learning” App by Rasmussen College.
Ollie helps children improve fine motor and handwriting skills as well as introduce, reinforce, and solidify letter and sound recognition. Kids have fun with colored chalk on a “blackboard” with chalk sound effects!

Kids learn with Ollie to recognize letters and their corresponding sounds. They practice handwriting and reinforce phonics skills by tracing capital and lowercase letters and spelling and reading phonics and sight words.
CAPITAL & LOWERCASE LETTERS: Ollie shows the letter shape, name, sound, and corresponding phonics picture (“P is for Pirate!”).
PHONICS WORDS: Ollie shows how to separate and put together sounds to read and spell words with accompanying graphics (“c...a....t.... cat!”).
SIGHT WORDS: Ollie shows how to read and spell sight words (the, to, and).
