This program does a good job of providing extra drill and practice in phonics. Kid Keys Davidson Ages 6 and up This program is on floppy disk and may be hard to find, but it is well worth the effort for a young child who needs to learn keyboarding. It teaches basic typing in a multisensory method and gives practice based on the alphabet sequence. This is an excellent word processor for children and is used in many area schools. In addition, it is easy to use.
Most children find it ideal for doing homework and writing projects.
Children can use words, clip art, and pictures in place of words to write a story or make and print a book. One of the special features of this program is that the computer can read what the child has written. Once the scene is set, the children have space on the page to write about the picture they have created. Many children find starting with a visual picture helps them with written language. This is a program that will appeal to children without seeming like it is math.
