Subject: Phonics and Early Reading
Levels Used: Level 1, 2, 3
Dates Used: 2008-2009

Likes: My daughter did well on this program. We borrowed it from the library which makes it a really great resource. She liked the computer game(from level 1) and finished it in just a few weeks.

My daughter enjoyed the readers. They are in black and white, but I think that helps the children concentrate on the words without too much distraction from the pictures.

It does come with a workbook for the teacher and student. We did not use the workbook as much in level 2 and 3, but we did do the lessons from level 1 and they helped with teaching the basic concepts in each lesson.

The most important thing for me is that it worked. My daughter is reading.

Dislikes: I did not always understand the activities mentioned in the workbook.
