Choosing the Play Mode:

The tracing experience should be defined according to the current level of the child. In order to do that, the app provides several parameters to customize the tracing experience (e.g. letter size, difficulty, show/hide model,...). The play mode defines how these parameters are set when the child traces letters:

Free Mode:

In this mode, when the child traces a letter or a word, all the parameters allowing to customize the tracing are available via the top-right "gear" button (including letter size, difficulty, pen style, show/hide model,...).

5 Stars Mode:

This mode focuses on the selected letter or word, prompting the child to trace it 5 times using different parameters. Each step is more challenging, starting with the easiest parameters and eventually hiding the model altogether. For each successful step, the child wins a star that is displayed in the letters menu.

Parameters can be customized for each step so that you can tailor the 5 Stars Mode tracing experience. Parameters can be customized in the main settings dialog available on the home page.
