Community Review for Writing Wizard for Kids
My Take
This is a great app to kill two birds with one stone. It is a great handwriting app because it records what tracing the kids are doing so you can go in and look at what a student has done on the app. It also forces them to form the letters correctly. The other great thing about this app it is customizable to your student's needs. I can't say enough about this app. It is great.
How I Use It
I use it for kids to work on their sight words during our center time. They will work on this app for hours. I also use it for and RTI intervention for my kids because it records their usage each day.

Very enjoyable for students. They couldn't get enough of the sounds and graphics. They never seemed happier to write their letters.
My overall opinion is this project would be a hood investment. With the level of engagment needing to be incredibly high for early childhood, this takes care of that issue. However, it would need to be used sparingly since it may get old after a while if continued use every day. The kids would benefit greatly because the only practice they get is at school, having the ability to practice more at home would be very helpful.

Writing Wizard is a Great App! Teaches kids letter formation and has setting for customization
A simple app with lots of great settings to help your students with letter formation. Some of my favorite settings are being able to select our Districts handwriting curriculum, in the reports you see a recording of formation strokes and you are able to customize a list of your own words. The students love working on Writing Wizard. Their favorite part is the animation while tracing the letters.
