Designed to introduce the alphabet, Learning Letters is easy and
fun. Type press any letter key and you'll learn the letter's name
and see it appear in both upper and lower case. You'll even see
a fun animation of a word starting with that letter.
Do you already know the alphabet? This activity helps you master
how one letter follows the other. Four letters will appear on the screen
but one of them is missing. Press the letter key to input the missing
letter. If you need some help, press the HELP key and a bubble
help will pop up with three multiple choices to choose from.
Each letter has two forms - upper and lower case. Your mission in
this activity is to help match up the upper and lower case letter pairs.
A letter will appear in either upper or lower case and then disappear.
Three possible matches will appear on the screen. From the three
answer choices given, select the letter that completes the pair.
This activity will help sharpen your skills in detecting upper and
lower case letters. A few letters will appear on the screen. Either
they will be all lowercase with one upper case letter or they will
all be uppercase with one lower case. Use the left and right cursor
buttons ( , ) to choose the odd one out and press the ENTER
key to confirm your answer.
Test your spelling skills! A picture will appear on the screen followed
by it's spelling. However, a letter will be missing from the word.
You can hunt for the correct answer by typing the missing letter.
Three choices will be given to you if press the HELP key.
First you will see an animation of a word. A word search grid
will appear with the word hidden somewhere among the letters.
Find the word vertically or horizontally by using the cursor buttons
to highlight it and press the ENTER key to confirm.
