Computer Programs to Help Learners
Q:
"I was wondering if you know any computer programs that would be good for reading enrichment for a 4th grader." -- LG, Florida
A:
There are hundreds of programs today. One way to leaf through this maze is to send for the Special Times Catalog from Cambridge MASS at 1-800-637-0047. They sift through all the software and highlight the best pieces for kids with special needs. I find it a wonderful resource before I go software shopping. Their prices are quite competitive. I like Reader Rabbit and Jump Start Reading for starters.
