WGBH is building a library of mobile apps for your iPhone or iPad, offering
you and your family fresh, interactive content. We have apps for all ages,
and every month we will choose one (or more) to highlight.
Martha Speaks to Kids
Education is at the heart of WGBH’s mission, and apps have proven to
be an effective learning tool for children. Take the Martha Speaks Dog
Party iPhone app inspired by WGBH’s curriculum-based television series
Martha Speaks. Independent studies show that playing the app gives
kids a 31 percent vocabulary boost.
Building on the success of Dog Party, WGBH this fall launched two
new Martha apps: Martha Speaks Story Maker for iPhones, and Martha
Speaks Word Spinner for iPads. With Story Maker, kids can create eight
different stories with Martha, who then reads their stories aloud. Word
Spinner gets the whole family involved, giving up to four players the
chance to compete in six fun and interactive mini-games. Along the
way, kids develop their storytelling and oral vocabulary skills.
Apps like Dog Party can get kids talking about the words they are
learning, says Bill Shribman, senior executive producer for WGBH’s
Children’s Media. “When kids say words out loud something magical
happens,” Shribman says. “They begin to understand the meaning of
the words they hear. It’s amazing to see learning in action.”
The Martha Speaks Dog Party, Story Maker and Word Spinner apps are
available on iTunes.

Masterpiece Classic/Downton Abbey Season 3
Sun, 1/6, 1/13, 1/20 & 1/27 at 9pm on WGBH 2
Premiere on 1/6 is two hours; episodes 2–4 are one hour each.
The season concludes with three episodes in February.
Crossing the Pond
When producers sought an actress to A d v ertisement
play the formidable American mother
of Downton Abbey’s New York-bred
Countess of Grantham (Elizabeth
McGovern), they had to look no
further than the legendary Shirley
MacLaine. With six Academy Award
nominations, more than 50 feature
films and a current one-woman show
to her credit, the Hollywood veteran was the perfect fit for the part.
Her character, Martha Levinson, arrives just before the nuptials of Lady
Mary and Matthew Crawley, and in no time raises the hackles of her
British counterpart, the indomitable Dowager Countess of Grantham
(Dame Maggie Smith). Step back, and let the parrying begin!
