Couple of improvements.

3 year old loves the app! But, would be nice if it would say what the letter is. Also, could be a little lenient about the tracing. She gets a little frustrated after trying a few times. Other than that great for her to practice!


Great OT app

My students and clients love Lettersçhool. When provided with other occupational therapy techniques, I am seeing huge gains for many students.


Excellent!

I have had this app since April 4 of this year and have already seen an improvement in my 3 year old daughters letter writing skills. So wonderful! She loves the game and I love that I can see which letters she had finished! I do have a suggestion though - add the option to write their own name!!


Educational and great design

Mission accomplished - kids are learning! and the Tracing feels like PLay - so well done :)


This is a good app if they change few things

After reading other reviews I purchased this app as it seems to be a fun app for children who are exploring writing. My child is 4 years old and knows how to write his name and simple words. But this app is very restrictive in how to write each letter. Not very child friendly who are learning how to write. This app would be more appropriate for older children 5 and up. But then what’s the point of this app as these children know how to write. If this app is targeted towards younger children 5 and under they need make it easier and not restrict to a certain way how to write a letter! There are more ways in writing letter than just ONE!


app has gotten too expensive

This is one of my all-time favorite apps for my students to practice handwriting. It is too bad that the price has been raised so much. This app was $1.99 last year. Now, at $5.99 it is too expensive for me to purchase for my classroom set of ipads. I wish that the price had not gone up so much. What a shame :(


Love this app

JenDodgeOT

I'm a school-based OT. It both cracks me up and horrifies me to see the complaint that this app is restrictive in how it makes children write the letters. THAT IS THE POINT!! I guess it has been so long since children were actually taught that there is a way you are supposed to form letters and not just draw them however you can figure out yourself, that people have forgotten there is any such thing. Anyway, this app is so inherently motivating to many children, that it can get them to really work hard at learning to control their movements and learn to form letters when games, promised rewards, modeling by peers, cheering by adults etc failed. It has some magical draw that makes children keep wanting to work on it. And I love that you can set it to Handwriting Without Tears style letters. I agree about the Left-handers, though. There should be a way you can switch it so that you can form the horizontal lines right-to-left. And I wish it didn't keep it from working properly if you stabilize the side of your hand down on the screen while writing, but that is a complaint I have with every tablet-based visual-motor app.


Good app But...

pascualabigail

Not worth $4.99. More like $1.99. Good for children learning to write and fun to look at but it's too easy. For the price should have levels once it's finish with writing letters and numbers it should encourage to write words. Or maybe asked how many is on the screen and you should be able to write to correct count. Well The free app was worth it. That's all. Just wish there's more to it.


Simple, and highly efficient

This app is so simple in use that very young children discover by themselves how to use it without any help. This is definitely my favorite app for young children. They go on and on playing for ages, and their handwriting improves by leaps and bounds.


Crashes now! Fix this, unacceptable for a pay app

ginster24

Crashes after pressing the green arrow. This is unacceptable since we paid for this app! Prior to this problem, my daughter age 5 loved this app and it has improved her handwriting and love of it immensely. Very disappointed, please fix this and I will change my review accordingly.
