STARFALL

I encourage teachers like myself and parents to visit www.starfall.com . This software teaches children to read with phonics. This program is great for preschoolers, first and second year infant students.
Starfall utilises exciting phonics games and online interactive books. Starfall.com started in 2002 and was made possible through the vision of Dr. Stephen Schutz as a free public service and as since then helped to motivate children to read. The lesson plans motivate kindergarten children by creating an atmosphere of fun and enthusiasm, providing opportunities for child-directed instruction, and facilitating the needs of English language learners and struggling readers learning alongside their peers.It includes a lot of ABC animations, animated interactive books and other reading exercises. There are also a lot of downloadable materials such as handouts for classroom use which are also perfect for home schooling.
Starfall is recognized and highly rated by experts. Starfall was the first Internet site to be recognized by Children's Software & New Media Review as the highest rated product in their Early Elementary category, Spring 2004. Parents are very impressed and have left rave reviews, so go on, click the link and explore the world of Starfall.
