HangArt is an inclusive K-3 literacy game, created with educators. Our design is inspired by research which shows that connecting words to their meanings through pictures helps children become strong readers and writers. In HangArt, children practice 200 K-3 spelling sight words in a three-part literacy playground:
PLAY HANGMAN
A family & classroom friendly word game. Say goodbye to the violent, macabre image of a man on a noose that has long been associated with the hangman game. Our "hangman" is a friendly guy who hangs from a monkey bar. In our fill-in-the-blank word-guessing game, each correct letter guess is rewarded with the reveal of part of an illustration of the missing word. When you lose a word, our "hanging man" falls off the monkey bar. When you win a word, you are rewarded with a complete original illustration of that word. Our original drawings celebrate the diversity and many are inspired by art, culture, and history!
WORD GALLERY
Children draw their own pictures of the words they win using our custom drawing tool. They can also watch video playbacks of the original illustrations in the app, created by illustrator Kavita Ramchandran.
STORY STUDIO
Children record, save, and playback digital, animated stories using their winning words!
