My Cast Site Map Bailey's Book House Review this program's Universal Design for Learning features in the Examples and Illiustrations area. Designed for preschool to second-grade students, Bailey's Book House combines interactive technology with a unique set of proven learning techniques to create an environment that introduces a wide range of early literacy concepts. The software's characters invite children to explore the sounds and meanings of letters, words, rhymes, and stories. Via five different activities, students acquire vocabulary and build communication skills as they design greeting cards, write stories, create zany Mother Goose rhymes, learn word relationships, and play alphabet games with dancing dinosaurs and jogging jaguars. In addition to its varied, engaging activities, Bailey's Book House supports students with a variety of reading abilities.
Children move through activities at their own pace, which promotes creativity and invention.
Characters ask children to answer questions or perform a task, activities that promote problem solving and logical analysis. Finally, Bailey's Book House provides support for teachers and parents with its on-screen Adult Notebook. The notebook provides information about Bailey's Book House, and gives classroom and home activities that reinforce the skills children learn while using the software.
