Looking for a fun and engaging way to introduce your child to the world of German letters and words? The ZEBRA WRITING TABLE app is your perfect companion! Designed as a companion to the German textbook ZEBRA by Ernst Klett Verlag, this app stands strong on its own, offering a delightful learning path filled with films, games, and a variety of exercises. It's the perfect starting point for young learners embarking on their journey through the Zebra App series, tailored for German reading and writing from years 1 to 4.

The newly updated ZEBRA WRITING TABLE app focuses on the writing of phonetic words, using fundamental vocabulary to build a strong foundation. It's all about practicing those basic phonetic-letter connections in a fun and interactive way. If a child makes a mistake, no worries—the app automatically corrects it after the third try, showing both the correct word and the child's attempt. This feature helps kids spot their errors and learn from them, fostering a playful approach to developing basic orthographic awareness. Plus, with content that changes with each new game, the learning experience stays fresh and exciting, no matter how many times they play.

Here's what you'll find inside:

• Child-friendly videos that break down the basics in an easy-to-understand way.
• Automatic correction of incorrect entries, with the correct solution shown after the third attempt.
• A clear, organized learning path that guides children through the exercises.
• The freedom for self-determined learning, allowing kids to progress at their own pace.
• Motivation through collecting stars and trophies, making learning feel like a rewarding adventure.
• Detailed evaluations for teachers and parents, providing a solid basis for further support and encouragement.

The app is divided into two engaging areas:

SWINGING SYLLABLES AND WRITING: This section introduces children to the writing table and includes a variety of exercises to get them started:

• "initial-sound-rap"
• Movie "speak - listen - swing"
• Task "hear and swing"
• "ZEBRA writing table game"
• Movie "writing with the ZEBRA writing table"
• Task "swing and write" at both simple and difficult levels

HEARING SOUNDS: This area focuses on phonological awareness, a crucial step in learning to read and write:

• Which word begins with...?
• Which words sound similar at the beginning?
• Where do you hear the sound in the word?
• With which sound does the word begin?

The four listening tasks in the HEARING SOUNDS section are available as an in-app purchase, which can only be accessed through a secure teacher-parent area, protected by a numerical barrier. This setup ensures that the tablet remains safe from unwanted in-app purchases, giving parents peace of mind.

We're excited for you and your child to dive into the fun and educational world of ZEBRA WRITING TABLE. We can't wait to hear your feedback and comments!
