GREAT IN THE CLASSROOM!

With a unique and real-time feedback feature as well as complex tracing evaluation algorithms, LetraKid Cursive is one of a kind tracing app.

This is a new approach, focused on creating a fun game by utilizing handwritting mechanics itself. This avoids using distracting random rewards or secondary game mechanics that can break and confuse the learning process, optimizing learning progress and educational appeal to children.

The real time feedback will give both audio and graphic clues about the quality of the tracing and will adjust with difficulty level.
Our ABC and 123 tracing evaluation algorithms allow for an accurate and fun reward, using a 5 star rating for each exercise. This engages and motivates the kids to progress and to strive for more.

Ratings and reviews

I love how the app shows children which direction to form cursive letters in. Its colourful and the prize drawings are motivating. My criticisms are (1) letter sounds are not pronounced purely, they say "cUH" for C. (2) You start with 5 stars and lose a star for each error, my children have found this disheartening. It would be better to start with no stars and gain a star for each correct section with a little room for going slightly off the line. (3) The 1 star message tone is negative.
