Is It Any Good?
GRAMMAR GAMES is a good review of parts of speech for older kids or a gentle introduction for younger kids. It is not thorough enough to be complete instruction. All the parts of speech are introduced, but the app doesn't include all the explanatory information for each. Also, a few of the methods can be confusing, such as capitalizing some of the common nouns. For the game, it is difficult to maneuver the planes and helicopters so that they actually land. There seems to be a trick to it that is a challenge to get.
