Abstract
This research study determined if four iPad phonics applications had an impact on phonics acquisition in kindergarten students. This study concluded that the phonics iPad applications used in this study proved neither more nor less effective than the phonics iPad applications set in place by the classroom teacher. Data was collected through assessments, observations, and interviews with kindergarten students and their teacher. Based on the results from this study, no definitive difference was found between the four iPad applications and the iPad applications already set in place by the classroom teacher. The use of iPad applications should be considered when implementing phonics instruction for kindergarten students.
