Product Review of LetterSchool

Spread the love LetterSchool is a fresh perspective on teaching letter identification. The game guides kids to start writing by merely tapping on the starting point, while the game completes the letter for them and ends with the kid learning to write the letter.

The game uses magic ink and writing instead of traditional ink to engage the kids; initially, the game is set up with uppercase letters, but the educator can change to numbers or lowercase letters. Website: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id435476174 What Users Love About the App

“Love this app for my preschooler. I love that I can pick the font to learn so it matches up with what she’s learning in school. All the different animations keep my daughter engaged and motivated.”

“I use this app every day with my special education students who need help learning letter formation using the Handwriting Without Tears formation guidelines. This app reinforces a developmentally appropriate approach to learn letter formation.” “Best printing app!

As a K teacher, this is my go-to app for supported latter formation practice. Kids love it. I like the way the support is slowly withdrawn as the kids practice.”

“We started out with the “lite” version of Letter School. I forgot to tell the kids I had even put it on there when my son found it. I kept hearing this noise and him laughing and squawking/screaming delight (he’s on the autism spectrum however he IS verbal).

He told me he wanted more of the app!” “Wow. I love this game because it has new styles like the uk style and Australian style!!”

What Users Dislike About the App “My only complaint is that the letter H gets frozen after the first animation. My daughter is so sad she can’t get all the stars.”

“Can’t get app to work. The app won’t face the correct way when the iPad is laying in landscape. So frustrating!”

“Why are u asking me questions like what numbers is visible by 3 and when I select the answer it doesn’t work ? I want my money back.” “I was using an older version of this app on my friends iPad, which is why I decided to purchase one for myself.

I am surprised that all the block letters start with diagonal lines. That is so confusing and for it being the same app, I feel like I wasted my money. Not happy.”

“There is a glitch with the letter H where sometimes it freezes and you have to do each part twice and my son gets really frustrated.

I saw a comment from two years ago that reported it and it’s a little disappointing it still hasn’t been fixed.”
