Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Teachers agree: learning is easy when you're having fun. That's the spark behind Math and Reading Excelerator Grades 1 and 2, the four-disc set of premium software titles combining amusement and education in one motivationally interactive package.

Stuffed with more than 70 individual lessons and over 100,000 practice questions, this educational CD-ROM suite for children delivers endless hours of exciting learning adventure, ensuring the acquisition and retention of fundamental reading, Spanish, and math skills. Whether they're learning new vocabulary and rhyming words with the vocal encouragement of Flash the Dog, or honing their burgeoning mathematics and Spanish-language abilities, kids will grow with confidence as they immerse themselves in these challenging activities, which adjust to a child's rising proficiency level.

Specific bundled software titles include: Math 1-2 (covers topics such as addition, subtraction, fractions, shapes, equations, and place values for units, tens, and hundreds), GeoSafari KnowledgePad Math: Addition & Subtraction (where kids master the basics of arithmetic while playing the colorful array of gently encouraging drag-and-drop learning games overflowing with photos, illustrations, lights, and sounds), Test Success: Reading & Math (an animated CD-ROM designed to introduce first- and second-graders to the concept of multiple-choice testing in mathematics and reading comprehension), and Spanish with Phonics (in which kids learn new Spanish words through willing retention of letter sounds and patterns, rather than via rote memorization and boring drills).

Teacher Librarian ranks it Best Math Software K-9, and Children's Software Review awards it 4.4 out of 5 stars.

This review is from: Educator's Choice Math and Reading Excelerator Grades 1-2 (CD-ROM)

Installs fine (Disk 1), but you need to run in 98/Me compatibility mode otherwise the shortcut cannot find the CD ROM.



I tried to install on the kids machine and encountered errors. Set screen resolution to 640 by 480 and changed color depth to 256. Finally saw programs graphics but still encountered errors...
