With the Read, Write & Type!™ Learning System, you can...

• HELP a child learn to read! This 40-lesson adventure is a powerful tool for 6-8 year olds just learning to read, for children of other cultures learning to read and write in English, and for students of any age who are struggling to become successful readers and writers.
• TEACH important skills! Children learn phonics, reading, spelling, writing, vocabulary, punctuation, and even keyboarding.
• ACTIVATE multiple brain systems! Children see, hear, speak, touch, move their fingers, and laugh with pleasure as they play each new level. Research shows this is the most efficient and effective way to learn.

SEE impressive results in just fifteen minutes a day! This simple yet revolutionary program teaches children to read while teaching them to write! Visual and auditory help comes from the Talking Keyboard and Helping Hands as children sound-out, spell, and read hundreds of words in engaging animated games and stories.

 

Children learn to hear the individual sounds in words, and associate each sound with a letter and a fingerstroke on the keyboard. Children use their eyes, ears, mouths, and fingers. This multi-sensory and motor approach stimulates learning and helps children who have different learning styles. Children develop fluency by making thousands of letter-sound (phonics) associations. Children are engaged and motivated by the colorful characters, games, animations, and music.

Children's progress is assessed and tracked by the program, which suggests activities to help them in problem areas. Children get instant auditory and visual feedback to correct their errors. Parents and teachers can customize the program for different reading levels and proficiency targets. Children think and practice phonics continually as they spell out meaningful words, sentences, and stories. Children sound out, read, and write any word they can say.

The Read, Write & Type Learning System™ Learning System adventure takes place in a fantasy world inside the computer. A lively gang of storytellers (Ann the Ant, Bud, the Banjo Cass the Cat, etc.) live in two houses that look like the two halves of a keyboard. A mischievous computer villain called Vexor tries to steal the letters and prevent the storytellers from writing down their stories. Two Helping Hands, Lefty and Rightway, help children foil Vexor through 40 exciting levels, building hundreds of animated sentences and stories as they go. Children are rewarded with certificates of advancement after every four letters.
