IT'S TIME TO READ!
I might as well get it out in the open. The next app out of Salvation's Story will be a reading app! I'm pretty excited about this one. It's not JUST a reading app, here are the things I want kids to learn through this app:
- Spelling
- Phonics
- Memory verses
I find that my memory verse skills are really lacking. I remember a time when I would learn a new Bible verse every week! I was a 'Pioneer' in Awana, and I had my little Awana book to help me out. The verses that stuck with me were the ones that were accompanied by an awesome illustration. I felt those illustrations really sent home the message for me. That is what I hope to accomplish with this latest app. Kids will learn how to spell words from the Bible, then use those words in a Bible verse, and then be presented with a fun animation describing the verse!
It's going to take a bit of time, but it's already coming together faster than I expected!
HOW YOU CAN HELP
I need verses! Are there any Bible verses you would love to have your children learn? Tell me! For animation's sake, try to keep them simple in complexity. While John 3:16 is an amazing verse, trying to convey the idea of God loving and saving the world through the sacrifice of His Son for those who believe may be a little difficult in a 5 second animation!
So bring on the input!
