Write My Name by Injini
Developed by experts and endorsed by parents and teachers, Write My Name by Injini is a fun way for children to practice writing letters, words, names and phrases. Write My Name supports children ages 4 through 6 to learn how to write their name, trace uppercase and lowercase letters, and write over 100 familiar sight/Dolch words. Write My Name meets some of the basic reading and writing Common Core State Standards for kindergarten such as the introduction and mastery of print and word recognition concepts.
How to Play
Embedded within a child’s beautiful wood desk space there are three activity areas that preschoolers and kindergarteners can explore as they practice and master writing their alphabet, name, and common sight words.
·ABC alphabet book focuses on learning and tracing the individual uppercase or lowercase letters.
·Word cards introduce over 100+ common sight words where children trace words in uppercase or lowercase letters. Once the word is traced, the word card comes to life with vibrant colors and animations. Trace the word a second time and a star stamp is added to the student’s word journal. These rewards encourage children to keep progressing through all the words provided.
·My Name allows parents and teachers to create over 36 nametags, including the child’s name with a picture for children to practice writing words that are especially meaningful for them.
Students with Special Needs
In the same tradition as Injini and My First AAC, Project Injini was inspired to create Write My Name for children with special needs to help them practice emerging writing skills in a fun and playful way. Children with name writing as one of their IEP (individual education program) goals will especially benefit from the Write My Name learning application as it makes this task accessible and achievable to children with fine motor delays and sensory processing issues.

SUPER APP FOR SPECIAL KIDS
My 11 y/o daughter who is autistic and delayed to approx 3-5 yrs would draw but not do letters. I found this app has everything needed to keep her attention. Nice sound, simple animations for completing a letter, and easy navigation between choices with the large tabs. I only had to help her finger follow the stars once and she figured it out. Fantastic idea of name tags with the ability to add pictures and recorded names. She loves finding a picture of Daddy and Mommy and doesn't hesitate doing the letters to get an "Daddy loves you" when she's done. She navigates through this app independently and keeps working at it! I do have to say that I wouldn't have tried this app if I hadn't found it at the introductory price. All special education apps are more expensive, why I don't know, so I tend to avoid them and only buy the cheaper ones that will teach the same skills. We don't need to map their achievements and progress with the app, it just needs to be like this. A perfect app for a young child or a child with extra learning hurdles. Great thinking and fantastic application. Keep them coming!
Could this be updated so the name tag could have the voice recoding edited without redoing the tag? Changing the "voice reward" occasionally could keep the things interesting.
Makes learning fun
My 3 year old nephew loves this app and practices his writing when I see him 3 times a week. It's a great and fun way to learn.
A really wonderful learning tool
Using this app has really expanded my son's knowledge and abilities in spelling and writing. We got him a stylus as well just to use with this app to practice writing. It's a really great app.
