Their teams of parents, teachers, and kids have been exposed to the best, and the well, not-as-good in educational technology. They know what works, and what doesn't, and their word is trusted by a million visitors/month. Here, in SuperKids Word-of-the-Day for 8th Grade, they have created a deceptively elegant app for the iPhone that can be used for a few minutes at a time while on the go, or in extended sessions to master 365 important words.

Special features include: - definitions, synonyms, and a usage example for each word - bi-directional learning: words to definitions, definitions to words - learn in monthly sets - automatic missed word tracking and review - high score tracking for each player - email report card and study review - game position and status memory Words included in this app are based on the vocabulary set honed by millions of users of SuperKids.com's online vocabulary tools over the last ten years.
