School Zone Flash Action Reading Readiness - READING & WRITING SOFTWARE - It's an electronic workbook and more!
Product Information
School Zone Flash Action Reading Readiness lets you get on track with the newest
concept in education - electronic workbooks! Based on the renowned School
zone workbook series, this program incorporates beginning reading skills with
interactive activities and fun games. Proven curriculum, audio guidance
and clear examples help your child prepare for reading success. Skills
include classifying, ABC order, rhyming words and opposites. The program
randomizes problems with each use providing endless activities. Plus the
engaging games are an important break.
Reading Readiness K-1 uses a variety of methods to review teach and
reinforce important skills for early reading. The goal is to complete all of the
pages correctly. Once this is accomplished the user can print a personalized
certificate of completion. After every two screens the user is rewarded with a
game. Progress reports and planets at the bottom of each screen track the
user's progress. A green planet indicates correct screens and a red planet
indicates screens with incorrect answers. A user may quit Reading Readiness
K-1 at any time and return later. By using the same user name the software
retains that user's progress. The software randomly shuffles the activities
and exercises for each new user.
