ReadMe - Complete literacy package<br />

10<br />

Designed and produced<br />

by practising teachers<br />

What is ReadMe?<br />

ReadMe is a literacy tool that can be<br />

effectively used by all teachers. The idea<br />

<strong>for</strong> ReadMe evolved through years of<br />

experience, teaching English literacy<br />

classes in junior High School.<br />

�<br />

�<br />

�<br />

�<br />

�<br />

The ReadMe programme provides<br />

the same stimulations and challenges<br />

students have grown to expect<br />

Bringing together advanced teaching<br />

techniques and modern technology,<br />

the lessons capture students attention<br />

and concentration<br />

ReadMe offers a comprehensive<br />

programme of 27 lessons that cover<br />

basic grammar skills, poetry analysis<br />

and text types<br />

ReadMe suits a wide audience.<br />

As the lesson content is drawn from<br />

subjects across the curriculum, diversity<br />

and wide appeal is guaranteed<br />

Students who are reluctant readers<br />

do not always engage with lessons<br />

presented in the “chalk & talk” manner;<br />

ReadMe offers an alternative<br />

The complete literacy package<br />

<strong>for</strong> upper Primary & lower<br />

Secondary students<br />

Provides the stimulation and<br />

challenges students have<br />

grown to expect.<br />

The programme has been<br />

rigorously trialled and finessed<br />

to appeal to a wide audience.<br />

How does it Work?<br />

ReadMe is web based and will run in<br />

any browser. As such, it can be used<br />

across the network or on stand-alone<br />

computers. The lessons are accompanied<br />

by 131 black line masters (student<br />

handbook), which are fully reproducible,<br />

and includes an answer book.<br />

�<br />

�<br />

�<br />

�<br />

ReadMe presents important content<br />

in a fresh challenging fashion that is<br />

both interesting and engaging<br />

By simplifying and examining the rules<br />

of grammar, poetry, language and<br />

genres, the lessons clearly explain<br />

how the English language works<br />

Many of the interactive tasks are selfcorrecting,<br />

and are accompanied by<br />

compelling sound effects<br />

Learning that is fun is <strong>learning</strong> that is<br />

retained, so some lessons conclude<br />

with a game. This enjoyable activity<br />

serves to consolidate <strong>learning</strong><br />

Provides a comprehensive<br />

student handbook (Black<br />

Lined Masters) that can be<br />

completed with the lessons.<br />

English teachers.<br />

“ReadMe are to be commended <strong>for</strong> their<br />

interactive CD. Text types, punctuation and<br />

word study, all-in-one smart, user-friendly<br />

package which students and teachers love.”<br />

Tony Doyle (Head of Sandringham House, Firbank Grammar, Melbourne)<br />

“I was impressed by the ease of design, the<br />

interactivity of the software and the fact that<br />

independent worksheets allowed <strong>for</strong> effective<br />

teacher assessment of skills taught.”<br />

Trudi Gofton (Deputy Head – Curriculum, Anglican<br />

Church Grammar Preparatory School, Brisbane)<br />

“As a teacher of English, I have found ReadMe<br />

to be extremely useful. The software activities<br />

cater <strong>for</strong> a wide range of ability levels within<br />

my Year 9 class ... highly recommended.”<br />

Kevin Watler (English Teacher, Kingscliff High School, Kingscliff)<br />

“The ReadMe software has been a good additional<br />

tool to complement English studies. Students<br />

enjoy the pictures, sounds and comprehensive<br />

visual activities that complement the lessons.<br />

ReadMe is a great tool <strong>for</strong> English studies.”<br />

Mark Savery (Junior Computers Coordinator, Emmanuel College)<br />

Early activities concentrate on single words and short strings. Stage A characters are 2<br />

dimensional, cartoon characters making the program relevant <strong>for</strong> all ages. vocabulary is<br />

introduced initially in a meaningful context, then approached in different activities through 3<br />

different skill areas; listening and response, reading and response and writing.<br />

In Stage B the 3D characters are more sophisticated, a reward to students <strong>for</strong> having<br />

completed Stage A. Activities in Stage B develop longer texts strings and expands<br />

to include; Form, Lists of functions and vocabulary <strong>for</strong> each unit. Units of work are<br />

based around a topic, e.g. greetings. Introductions, leisure, travel, with the grammatical<br />

explanations.<br />

In both Stages the first activity introduces new vocabulary and functions. After initial<br />

Items are introduced, practised, and eventually called up from learner’s new knowledge<br />

base by way of end of unit quizzes.<br />

In both Stages the first activity introduces new vocabulary and functions. After initial<br />

introduction, further activities focus on rein<strong>for</strong>cing the targeted material.<br />

Learners are rewarded each time they do an activity, so activities are <strong>learning</strong> activities<br />

rather than testing activities.<br />

Activity types included; arrangement, comprehension recognition, jumbled sentences,<br />

jumbled letters, matching, multiple choice, short answer etc,<br />

Staged deployment starting with single words and short strings leading into longer text<br />

and complete sentences.<br />

There is a storyline underpinning the whole development of the Stage, unifying and<br />

creating interest in what might happen next.<br />

The programs are multi-media based using colourful animated graphics, computer<br />

music with a catchy beat, and recordings of native speaker speech. Some photographs<br />

are also used in the culture activities.<br />

Each activity is scored, and learners are not permitted to advance if their score is<br />

unsatisfactory. However, it is possible to repeat activities any number of times in order<br />

to boost final score <strong>for</strong> the unit.<br />

The characters, funny animated scenes (mad professor who blows himself up, dog that<br />

falls down the ladder etc) and catchy music maintain the appeal and fun elements <strong>for</strong><br />

learners.<br />

The learner has the opportunity to print a certificate of attainment at the end of each<br />

unit, including their score <strong>for</strong> that unit.<br />

“As the program is<br />

self-paced it is ideal <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Eduss</strong> XiTeach - English & Phonics<br />

The Phonics-to-Reading program contains lessons and exercises to meet the needs<br />

of early childhood reading skills, intervention <strong>for</strong> older students with fundamental<br />

reading deficiencies, and <strong>for</strong> ESL students. The program is built around the recognized<br />

elements of reading: phonics, phonemic awareness, fluency, comprehension and vocab<br />

development. The program moves sequentially and methodically from individual sounds to<br />

blended sounds to whole words and sentences. The unique, simple code has the added<br />

advantage of enhancing spelling skills. Because developing reading skills rely on developing<br />

comprehension, the <strong>Eduss</strong> program includes comprehension exercises from K-6.<br />

As an added feature <strong>for</strong> ELL & ESL students supra segmental instruction is also included.<br />

There is a better way. From the makers of Gizmos, ExploreLearning Reflex is the next-generation solution <strong>for</strong> maths fact fluency.<br />

Key Reflex features:<br />

� Adaptivity and individualization. Reflex continuously monitors each student’s per<strong>for</strong>mance to create the optimal experience <strong>for</strong> every child.<br />

� Intuitive and powerful reporting. Educators have everything they need to easily monitor and support student progress in Reflex.<br />

� Anytime, anywhere access. Students can build fluency with Reflex anywhere there is an Internet connection.<br />

Fun! Reflex is game-based so kids keep coming back <strong>for</strong> more.<br />

Engaging Games<br />

Students build fluency through a variety<br />

of exciting, fast-paced games.<br />

Rewards<br />

earnings to customize their avatars.<br />

Reflex specifications<br />

Reflex is targeted primarily at students in<br />

grades 2-6.<br />

Reflex uses extensive narration and<br />

limited on screen text. Reading ability<br />

should not be a factor <strong>for</strong> most students.<br />

Headphones are recommended <strong>for</strong><br />

classroom use.<br />

Students can be assigned to addition<br />

and subtraction or multiplication<br />

and division. The range of facts can<br />

be customized to meet your state’s<br />

requirements (0-9, 0-10, 0-12).<br />

Minimum technical requirements:<br />

- Flash player 10.1<br />

- Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 3,<br />

and Safari 3<br />
