What it is/what you do with it: letter writing/spelling practice with friendly monsters/Halloween theme.

3 activities: - letter forming/tracing (lowercase, uppercase and 2 types of cursive) - dot-2-dot puzzle activity - word building

Trace the letter then solve a simple dot-2-dot puzzle to unveil a monster whose name starts with the given letter (or - depending on the mode - spell out the name).

What we liked: good set of activities for letter tracing practice. Lowercase/uppercase/cursive formats included. Fun, kid friendly monster characters. Ease of use. Visual clues for both letter tracing and dot-2-dot activity. Multiple student accounts.

What we didn't like: we wish there was was some sort of progress tracking.
