Whizzimo offers three settings sections that are not tied to specific activities: General, Tile, and Advanced settings. These options allow you to personalize your experience and optimize your teaching workflow.

The General settings section provides customization options that apply across multiple areas in Whizzimo. For example, you can:

Choose fonts and font sizes for tiles and typed text.

Set the default width and color for the marker.

Select the default size, icon, and shape for stamps.

Whizzimo's Tile settings are divided into three tabs: Tile Layout, Tile Design, and Compound Sounds. Customizing these settings when you first set up your account will help streamline your experience. You can always revisit them to make adjustments as needed.

The Tile Layout tab allows you to add, remove, or rearrange tiles displayed in the Tileboard and Workbook Tiles activities.

Add tiles by selecting a Tile Type from the dropdown menu and dragging them to your preferred location on the grid.

Remove tiles by dragging them from the grid to the area below.

Rearrange tiles by moving them to a new location on the grid.

The Tile Design tab lets you customize the background and font colors of tiles based on categories like Basic Vowels and Silent Letter Combinations. Each card in this section provides a preview of your selected styles.

The Compound Sounds tab allows you to control how specific sound/letter combinations appear on prebuilt words throughout Whizzimo. Let's use the word cli(ff) as an example.

When building the word 'cliff', you may prefer to have the double 'ff' displayed on one tile (c-l-i-ff). If so, select the first option.

But if you prefer that they are displayed on two separate tiles (c-l-i-f-f), select the second option.

Some sound/letter combinations even provide three options. For example, the letters 'ank' in words like 'bank' can be displayed on three tiles (a-n-k), two tiles (a-nk), or one tile (ank). The choice is yours!
