When finished, simply click over to the written form and the outline is ready to go. There is no better way to start to organize thoughts than around pictures representing the main ideas. After a while, kids may feel more comfortable writing directly into the written format, and won't use the graphics as much to get started. Tools give the ability to cut and paste text, import graphics, undo, change fonts and colors, and choose different outline styles. Sounds can also be added.
Teachers can import graphics into special collections for their class to use on projects.
The suggested age range of K-3 is a little restrictive, as kids in upper elementary grades can also benefit from this program. The full version is somewhat expensive as it's designed for classroom use, but the demo is well worth trying for someone having trouble writing - either for home use or in the classroom.
