HELP !!!!!
Ok, Im balancing "working" from home and trying to educate my 6 year old
She has a few minor issues and is a little behind due to these with her writing (her reading is very advanced, as to are most of her practical and IT skills)\
The school has produced a few resources, but to be honest they are very limited and not "fun"
Can anyone recommend anything suitable for Year 2 / Key Stage 1 that can be put on an iPad that will help with writing and maths ?
If on iPad I know will keep her interest that bit more - we have access to Apple Pencil as well, so anything that utilises that would be ideal
I remember when I was a kid, BBC had "Look and Read" that featured "The magic pencil" - it drew letters, "up and down, around and flick" etc.
Something like that to help her writing would be great
Or something that I could put words in and it would ask her to spell, and she had to use the Apple Pencil to spell them ?
She is doing brilliantly and we are doing it in exercise books, but I know she would find it more "fun" if was interactive on the iPad
Oh, and as a quick aside, but related - I am trying to print some of the resources school produces for her off via Ipad
Things like spelling sheets and timetables - however, I save these as "photos" and then print them out, but when they print off, the pictures are much to small and don't accommodate a full sheet of A4 paper - hopefully someone can sort me for this too
Cheers
All the best
