What’s It About?
In GRAMMAR POP, users practice identifying the parts of speech, one sentence at a time. The game starts by having users identify nouns, verbs, and articles. Each level adds a different part of speech, such as helping verbs, adjectives, and pronouns, to the equation. As they correctly identify parts of speech, players earn points, coins, and achievement ribbons. At the end of each level, users see their ranking and total score.
Is It Any Good?
Grammar Pop is a good app to use to reinforce kids' knowledge of the parts of speech. Because there are no definitions or lessons within the app, kids and teens need to know the basic parts of speech before they play. Once they start playing, they'll find it's more entertaining than diagramming sentences or doing other rote grammar exercises. The app also encourages kids to improve their performance, rewarding them with milestones and tracking personal bests.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Have kids draw pictures of the sentences they encounter during the game and label the pictures with the parts of speech they represent.
Find or make up a silly rhyme about the parts of speech kids can use to help identify them when they appear in sentences.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
