You can customise activities with your own word lists so that practice is tailored to individual needs. Can be used alongside any phonics or spelling programme. Especially beneficial for those who struggle with spelling. Designed for individual use at a computer.
Special Needs
The activities and levels can be customised and allocated to individual pupils under the 'play teachers choice' selection to allow for differentiation. The difficulty level is hidden and records are saved to allow the teacher to check pupil responses later. The screens are bright and colourful. The simple instructions for each activity screen are in written and spoken form. Clicking on the audio icon repeats the instruction. The preview screen before each activity allows the children to read and hear the target words before the activity begins. This is not a pre-requisite before the activity, as the start button can be clicked whenever the child feels ready to commence.
Before each activity commences, the list of words to be used are on the screen, each with its own sound icon to hear each word if necessary. The sound is clear to hear and is of male and female voices, not computerised speech. Struggling readers can click on an icon during the activity to hear the word repeated. The audio icon also reads the instructions aloud.

 iRead Year 3
Don't just do it by the book! This CD-ROM for ages 8 to 9 is designed specifically for the interactive whiteboard and offers a highly motivating approach to teaching and learning reading.
i-Read helps teachers make effective use of interactive whiteboards to enrich children's reading experience. But don't worry because the technology is very easy to use! Away from the whiteboard, the programme is well suited to small group and individual reading instruction providing children with stimulating texts and proven reading strategies.
Easy to use: i-read will help you to get the most out of your interactive whiteboard by supporting you to teach reading skills and strategies to the whole class.
Enriched reading: audio, video and thought-provoking questions enhance the texts and stimulate pupil's involvement. Interactive activities provide opportunities for further discussion and consolidation of the teaching objective.
Interactive reading: explore and analyse texts using the simple tools to highlight and annotate. Annotations can be saved at the click of a button and revisited at any time - an excellent revision aid that you can't have with an OHT!
Newly written texts: the CD-ROM includes quality stories and non-fiction texts that have been newly written plus poetry from children's favourite authors to motivate and engage pupils.
Popular children's authors: our experienced author team includes Series Editor Pie Corbett, plus Chris Powling, Valerie Bloom, Tony Mitton, Ruth Thomson, Michaela Morgan and many more. Firm favourites in any classroom!
This is a ideal resource for guided reading away from the interactive whiteboard.
* Makes best use of whiteboard technology, including music, video clips, sound effects, poetry readings, oral storytelling and dialogues to hone listening skills and to help children engage with the text.
* Supports guided and independent reading away from the whiteboard.
* Includes engaging stories and non-fiction texts that have been newly written, plus poetry from children's and teacher's favourite authors.
* Easily integrated and used with your existing resources.
* Supports the teaching and learning of reading and manages the transition from reading to writing.
* Click on the focus highlight buttons to highlight examples of a particular (predetermined) language feature throughout the e-text. |
