Product Description

From Children's Software Revue® -- "Subscribe Now!"

Part of the School Zone On-Track software series, this excellent program lets children practice their reading readiness skills in a structured yet entertaining setting. Features include bold graphics, a straightforward sequential presentation of skills and activities, emphasis on mastery and fun study breaks with arcade games. The graphics are adorable, bold and colorful. Silly animations are shown in between activity pages. When all pages are completed correctly, children can print out a certificate and play more games. They can also print out many of the activity pages for completion away from the computer. And get this-- if kids want to play the program over again, they press the "recycle" arrow and new problems are generated for almost all pages. Super! Skills covered include opposites, sequencing, matching, and identifying items that belong together. The CD comes with a workbook, too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good basic program, May 19, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Reading Readiness 1 (CD-ROM)

My 4 year old daughter loves this program, as well as another title in the series called Shapes. (shapes is better for younger children though). It is fun and easy to use, and is very enjoyable as well. I can't say she is really learning much in the way of new things, but she certainly is having fun, and her brain is engaged at the same time.

This review is from: Reading Readiness 1 (CD-ROM)

I purchased this for a young six-year old who will be undergoing surgery to have her small intestines removed. She will be in the hospital for awhile and missing school. Neither her Granna or I want her getting behind in school,so I selected Reading Readiness 1. We wanted something fun for her to keep her learning while in the hospital. Wonderful deal (price), fast delivery, am pleased with this purchase. Thank you!
