Alphabet, ABCs letters, 0-9 numbers, shapes and various funny tracing exercises are included in this educational game. WHAT KIDS CAN LEARN FROM THIS GAME • Recognize letter shapes and perfect alphabet pronunciation • The correct letter formation as learned in school: start, checkpoints, strokes direction, order etc. Difficulty Levels 1 and 2 with assisted writing are designed to focus on the letter formation. • Develop fine motor skills for handwriting activity. Difficulty Levels 3 to 5 with freehand writing activities will focus on this improvement to help maximize confidence and form when writing. • Playing with a stylus pen will also help to improve standard pencil grasp. Any stylus compatible with the device will work. MAIN FEATURES • 16 languages with full support for interface, human native voices for letter/numbers pronunciation and full official alphabets. • Makes use of the 9 most used fonts in classes all over the world for learning cursive handwriting • 5 difficulty levels with AUTO and LOCK settings, ranging from assisted writing for beginners, up to real freehand writing with minimal support and strict evaluation. • 4 set of glyphs: ABC (full alphabet for uppercase letters), abc (full alphabet for lowercase letters), 123 (numbers from 0 to 9) and a special set of shapes for funny exercises. • 5 progression levels, color coded for each glyph that allows parents and teachers an instant evaluation of the progression and most exercised letters at the alphabet level. • 16 funny sticker rewards that will unlock after progression milestones are reached. Writing practice made fun. • 3 profile slots with 50 funny avatars and name customization that will save independently the settings and the progression. • Full support for both Landscape and Portrait orientations. 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 handwriting 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. DESIGNED for KIDS • Works OFFLINE! No Internet connection required. • No irritating pop-ups. • No collection of personal data • Game settings are behind a parental gate. This can be enabled, and ensures a child to work with a certain font, formation rule, difficulty level and various other features for total specification to their needs. • This game can be useful for kids with autism, ADHD, dyslexia or dysgraphia conditions. This is an educational app for kids learning handwriting with cursive alphabet letters in kindergarten, pre-school, home-school, primary school or using as Montessori material.
Rocket ABCs Cursive
Read full descriptionHide full description
A clinical-grade learning app that teaches children ages 8–12 to recognize and sort cursive letters while building the fine motor and abstract-thinking skills that cursive writing develops. Cursive is increasingly absent from school curricula, but the cognitive benefits — fine motor control, letter-formation memory, abstract pattern recognition, reading fluency for older texts — remain real. WHAT IT TEACHES • Cursive letter recognition • Fine motor skill development through letter-tracing patterns • Form constancy across cursive variations • Abstract thinking via the connection between print and cursive forms • Reading fluency for cursive texts (historical documents, family letters) WHO IT'S FOR • Children ages 8–12 learning cursive for the first time • Children whose schools no longer teach cursive • Homeschool environments • Occupational therapists working on fine motor development • Parents who want to preserve a vanishing skill WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Rocket ABCs Cursive is built on the same three-pillar neurocognitive model — Attention, Intention, Rehearsal — that Dr. Markus uses across her clinical work. The exercises are hierarchical and deliberately structured to build skill rather than just provide practice. ABOUT THE DEVELOPER Dr. Donalee Markus has practiced cognitive restructuring since 1983, including 40+ years of work with children with learning differences. Her work is featured in Psychology Today and in Clark Elliott's "The Ghost in My Brain."
