Elementary


ABC Writing Full by Fire Bee Studio
normally $0.99
It's really tough to find decent free handwriting apps! This app provides tracing of upper case, lower case and numbers. The app is cute, it has a beach theme and it gives immediate feedback. I love the little animations that it includes.  It would be really great for handwriting practice because does not have some of the other features I like to see in handwriting apps like changing fonts, adding your own word list, phasing out dotted lines, etc..

Middle-High School

 
Eureka: Quick Memo & To-Do list by Jun Eui Hyung
normally $0.99
Super simple and clean to-do list. Just type in your task, press a dot and it's added to your list on the left of the screen and also to your notifications at the same time. You can tap, hold and drag an item to reorder it. When you finish the task, you just swipe the text on your list to the right and it automatically takes it off your list. If you want to take advantage of the notifications feature, you will have to set it up. Go into your settings>notifications and then scroll down and find Eureka. Then turn the notifications on and select your preferences. That's it!
