Review:
I have 3 children, ages 3, 5 and 6, and they all find something to enjoy in this software. My 3 year old can't play all the games, but he can play some, and there's plenty to keep his brothers interested as well. I like what they're learning from these games--solid math, spelling and reading skills. They play it so much on the computer at the library, that I'm getting it for our home computer
Twelve different episodes focus on developing targeted skills, involving children in the story while they assist George in writing two news articles and 30 stories. The software is geared to first- and second-grade children.
Users are treated to a familiar character, in a familiar storybook style. Classic illustrated pages flip by on the computer screen, with an ongoing narration by the storyteller. Pick up problems that you did not know about early!
Each chapter contains an educational drill, in one of several familiar computer game styles -- Pac-man style mazes, Mario-style obstacle avoidance -- as well as several more typical educational computing drills -- fill in the blank from multiple choices, and rearrange the letters. Surprisingly, the majority of these drills are focused on spelling, rather than reading and writing.
Educational Value
A solid spelling practice program. With multiple, settable difficulty levels, and a large number of well-conceived drills, any child who works through this program will improve his/her spelling proficency.
Several parents noted an additional concern. "Many of the spelling exercises required quick hand-eye coordination that my daughter doesn't yet have. She got frustrated." In fact, one second-grader told us, "I can't do it! It's too hard!" Yet she knew the answers.
