Serpodile offers a new method for learning writing numbers by decomposing the numbers in basic shapes (circle, slanted line…) using visual and audio directions.

Once the child have learn how to draw number with the colorfull numbers he can add difficuties by trying to draw the numbers on the outline shapes.

An help screen gives audio and drawning directions to use the app.

Each screen includes :

• A colorful frame to help children orient themselves in space (ground, sky, beginning/green, ending/red )
• A number or a basic shape
• A green arrow showing where to start and a red dot showing where to stop
• The “lesson mode” giving visual and verbal instructions to draw the number or basic shape
• A “padlock” to train a specific number many times
