Starfall Software- Learning to Read

A child's ability to read is a major factor in educational achievement.
It is a well known concern of parents and teachers, who know just
how much effort it takes to teach a child to read.

Assistance in this area can be found at http://www.starfall.com/
This site makes use of phonics, activities and reading exercises to
make reading fun and easy for children from preschool to junior
grade level.


Teachers and parents can use the site to improve student learning.
It is easy for children and adults to navigate. Throughout the site
users are subjected to stories, animation, graphics and phonic sounds.

The process involves step by step procedures.
When one level is mastered children can go on to the next one.
They are:
Starfall ABC'S, Learn to read, It's fun to read and I'm reading.

In essence children are taken from phonic sounds to being able to
pronounce whole words and sentences. There is even the added
element of learning ABC Sign Language.
