Language is the Foundation for Reading Success.<br />

Recently, the Common Core State Standards emphasized the<br />

importance of oral language in learning to read and write.<br />

“Oral language development precedes and is the foundation for written<br />

language development...listening and speaking vocabulary and even<br />

mastery of syntax set boundaries as to what children can read and<br />

understand no matter how well they can decode.”<br />

(Common Core State Standards Initiative, June, 2010)<br />

The Importance of Syntax<br />

<strong>Laureate</strong> o ers a variety of research-based software programs designed to help<br />

students with language impairments and English language learners master syntax<br />

and become better communicators and readers. Our syntax programs train the basic<br />

sentence forms and structures necessary for the development of communication<br />

competence and reading comprehension.<br />

Simple Sentence Structure teaches the importance of Subject-<br />

Verb-Object word order in simple sentences. See page 23<br />

LanguageLinks® is a comprehensive, six-level syntax assessment<br />

and intervention system that helps students master 75 essential<br />

grammatical forms. See page 24<br />

Prepositions! trains 10 important prepositions that improve<br />

students’ ability to follow simple directions necessary for school<br />

success. See page 27<br />

Pronoun Perspective provides intensive practice on 1st and 2nd<br />

person pronouns from a 3rd person perspective to increase comprehension<br />

of speaker/listener relationships. See page 28<br />

QuestionQuest® is a three-level series that helps students understand,<br />

answer, and ask common forms of questions (Who, What,<br />

Where, Why, How, With What, Yes/No). See page 29<br />

Checklist. A “Yes” answer means<br />

that a student has moved into the<br />

next stage. A “No” answer means<br />

you should consider software at<br />

that Language Functioning Stage.<br />

in the stage do not seem to match<br />

your student’s competencies, that<br />

stage is appropriate if your student<br />

exhibits all the characteristics in the<br />

previous stage.<br />

Once you’ve determined a student’s<br />

Language Functioning Stage,<br />

you can select individual programs<br />

from the Recommended <strong>Software</strong><br />

list or purchase a Stage Package<br />

Who Will Bene t From the<br />

master the sentence forms and structures necessary<br />

for the development of communication competence<br />

and reading comprehension.<br />

improved 150%. There is something so wonderful about<br />

seeing his face as he gets the answers correct and the<br />

computer tells him, “That’s right!” or “Good job!” He is<br />

so proud of himself. James is 4 1 /2 and is autistic with<br />

very limited communication skills. Until recently, he<br />

signed and used very few words, but since using the<br />

programs he talks all day long and has come out of<br />

his shell in ways we never could have imagined. These<br />

programs truly change the lives of the people who use<br />

them. Many thanks from our entire family.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Cindy Boehm<br />

The Sentence Master<br />

Looking for a Reading<br />

Program for Students<br />

with ASD?<br />

The Sentence Master is a systematic<br />

non-phonics based reading intervention<br />

program that directly<br />

addresses the problems<br />

faced by students<br />

with ASD, including<br />

those with hyperlexia.<br />

It emphasizes the overlearning<br />

of non-content<br />

words (such as “the,”<br />

“is,” “and,” etc.) and word endings (such as “-s,” “-ed,” and<br />

“-ing”). These non-content words represent over 50% of<br />

any page of text and are major determiners of meaning.<br />

In addition to providing direct instruction on the words<br />

and forms, each level of The Sentence Master uses stories<br />

that are tightly controlled<br />

for syntax. Each level builds<br />

upon the next, assisting in<br />

the development of comprehension<br />

skills.<br />

A Professional’s Perspective…<br />

“We have used The Sentence Master<br />

at our center with close to 100 chil-<br />

dren and adults adults with Autism over<br />

the past several years. It is by far my<br />

favorite program to use with clients<br />

with ASD and has proven to be<br />

extremely successful. The repetitive<br />

Valerie Herskowitz<br />

format and visual stimuli approach M.A. (CCC-SLP)<br />

is the appropriate design for these owns Di men sions<br />

individuals. In addition, the manner Therapy Center in<br />

Florida. She has a son<br />

in which the prompts both increase<br />

with autism.<br />

and decrease as needed meets<br />

the task orientation that is so successful with this population.<br />

I highly recommend The Sentence Master for both<br />

children and adults that are within the Autism Spectrum.”<br />

Early Vocabulary<br />

First Words , First Words II, and First<br />

These research-based* programs help children<br />

and adults with special needs master essential<br />

early vocabulary. They o er the consistent,<br />

focused, and supportive environment that<br />

many people with disabilities require to learn<br />

an initial vocabulary.<br />

These programs:<br />

• Build a core vocabulary of 100 nouns and 50 verbs<br />

• Off er highly-structured, individualized training<br />

• Include 200 photos, 200 illustrations, and 150<br />

verb animations<br />

Suggested for Individuals (Pre-K through Adult) with:<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental disabilities, languagelearning<br />

disorders, physical disabilities, low vision, and hearing<br />

impairments<br />

Product Description:<br />

First Words, First Words II, and First Verbs provide<br />

highly-structured training of early developing nouns and<br />

verbs. Each program trains 50 words in developmental<br />

order, focusing on only fi ve words at a time. Words are<br />

presented in isolation or with one other picture on the<br />

screen. You can choose to work on a black or full-scene<br />

background.<br />

Easy-to-use and e ective.<br />

Using <strong>Laureate</strong>'s Optimized Intervention® technology,<br />

the programs begin with an assessment test to identify<br />

5 words the student doesn't already know. Students<br />

are then presented with two pictures and asked to<br />

identify one of them (e.g. “Find the cow.”) The program<br />

monitors each student response and then automatically<br />

adjusts the training level of each word. At the lower levels<br />

of training, the Blob reinforces correct answers with his<br />

amusing antics.<br />

*Development of these programs was supported by SBIR grants from NIDCD and NICHD.<br />

Enriched Language Facilitates <strong>Learning</strong>!<br />

At the higher levels of training, a new character<br />

named Zot uses expanded language. Research has<br />

shown that this enhances vocabulary acquisition.<br />

“I like to dance.”<br />

“I am dancing<br />

with my cat.”<br />

“I will dance<br />

with my cat.”<br />

“I danced with<br />

my cat."<br />

Automatic record-keeping<br />

Each time a word is mastered, a new word enters<br />

into training. At the end of each lesson, a summary of<br />

the student’s performance can be reviewed, allowing<br />

you to quickly assess your student’s progress and ensure<br />

accountability.<br />

Each noun can be trained using two<br />

illustrations or two photographs.

Early Categorization<br />

Beginning training in categorization<br />

First Categories<br />

First Categories uses 60 nouns in 6 categories to train categorization<br />

skills. Innovative activities, hundreds of drawings and photographs,<br />

and exciting 3-D animation make this program fun and e ective.<br />

This program:<br />

• Trains 6 early categories using 60 nouns<br />

• Expands understanding of word meaning<br />

• Includes 120 illustrations and 120 photos<br />

Suggested for individuals (Pre-K<br />

through Adult) with:<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental<br />

disabilities, language-learning disorders,<br />

low vision, physical impairments, TBI, and<br />

aphasia<br />

Product Description:<br />

First Categories uses 60 common<br />

nouns to train 6 essential early categories:<br />

animals, food, body parts,<br />

clothing, furniture, and vehicles. For<br />

learners who are motivated by visual<br />

stimulation, we o er full-screen<br />

scenes and 3-D blocks. For those who<br />

are easily distracted, a simple black<br />

background can be used.<br />

Optimized Intervention ® O ers<br />

Improved Training!<br />

Using our Optimized Intervention<br />

technology, First Categories begins<br />

with an assessment to determine<br />

which categories a student doesn’t<br />

already know. During training, a<br />

student is asked to identify the<br />

item that belongs to a particular<br />

category (“Which one is an animal?”)<br />

The program continually monitors a<br />

student’s performance and then<br />

tailors instructional delivery to his or<br />

her unique needs.<br />

Flexibility and control<br />

You decide to train using two or<br />

three choices and whether to use<br />

illustrations or photographs. Four<br />

examples of each item aid in generalizing<br />

the concept.<br />

At the end of each lesson, a summary<br />

of the student’s performance<br />

can be reviewed, allowing you to<br />

quickly assess your student’s progress<br />

and ensure accountability.<br />

Syntax<br />

An essential step in language development<br />

Simple Sentence Structure<br />

Are you working with children who have a core vocabulary<br />

of nouns and verbs but are having di culty conveying<br />

mean ing? This program helps chil dren understand the<br />

importance of Subject-Verb-Object word order.<br />

This program:<br />

• Trains Subject-Verb-Object<br />

word order<br />

• Bridges the gap between the<br />

one- and two-word stage<br />

• Improves language<br />

comprehension<br />

Suggested for students (Pre-K-8) with:<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental<br />

disabilities, language-learning disorders,<br />

low vision, and hearing impairments<br />

• Also English language learners (Pre-K-6)<br />

Product Description:<br />

Many children with lan guage<br />

impairments have per sis tent prob -<br />

lems with word order processing<br />

and pro duc tion. This pioneering<br />

language in ter ven tion program<br />

helps them learn the importance of<br />

Subject-Verb-Ob ject word order in<br />

sen tenc es.<br />

Here’s how it works...<br />

Using <strong>Laureate</strong>’s Optimized<br />

Intervention® technology, Simple<br />

Sentence Structure begins with an<br />

assessment test to determine where<br />

to begin training. Then the program<br />

automatically guides the student<br />

through the appropriate curriculum.<br />

Simple Sentence Structure highlights<br />

the roles of subjects, objects,<br />

and verbs in sentences. Students<br />

move through four sentence sets:<br />

contrasting subjects, contrasting objects,<br />

contrasting verbs, and subject/<br />

object reversal.<br />

During training, the student is<br />

presented with two pictures and<br />

asked to identify one of them (e.g.<br />

“Find…‘The boy is splashing the<br />

girl.’”) The program monitors each<br />

student response and then adjusts<br />

the training level accordingly. At the<br />

end of each lesson, a summary of<br />

the student’s performance can be<br />

reviewed, allowing you to quickly<br />

assess your student’s progress and<br />

ensure accountability.<br />

Who will bene t<br />

from Simple<br />

Sentence Structure?<br />

• Children with Down syn drome who<br />

make er rors in the pro cess ing and<br />

pro duc tion of sentences in cor rect<br />

Sub ject-Verb-Ob ject word or der.<br />

• Chil dren with au tism will ben e fi t<br />

from the direct in struc tion to establish<br />

correct word or der pro cess ing<br />

and production.<br />

• Children with specific lan guage<br />

impairments who are already<br />

speak ing in short sen tenc es, but<br />

make errors in comprehending and<br />

pro duc ing Subject-Verb-Ob ject<br />

word or der.<br />

• Children with sig nifi cant lan guage<br />

delays who are in the late one-word<br />

stage of de vel op ment. At this point,<br />

they have a core vo cab u lary of over<br />

100 words but have not yet begun<br />

to combine words. Simple Sen tence<br />

Cannon, J.E., Easterbrooks, S. R.,<br />

Language defi cits are usually<br />

associated with impaired reading<br />

comprehension. This research1<br />

examined whether<br />

LanguageLinks would improve<br />

expressive syntax as well as<br />

reading comprehension.<br />

Twenty-six children aged 5-12<br />

who were Deaf or Hard of<br />

Hearing and used American<br />

Sign Language worked with<br />

LanguageLinks every school day<br />

for nine weeks. The results:<br />

• Students signifi cantly improved<br />

their reading comprehension<br />

as measured by the CWG2 ,<br />

which tests the ability to comprehend<br />

15 grammatical structures<br />

using a task that involves<br />

matching pictures to written<br />

sentences.<br />

• Students’ acquisition of morphosyntax<br />

as measured by the<br />

DELV3 was greatly accelerated<br />

as a consequence of regular<br />

use of the software.<br />

The results indicated that<br />

LanguageLinks signi cantly improved<br />

both reading comprehension<br />

and expressive syntax.<br />

Merchant, G., de Villiers, J., & Smith, S.<br />

Ten oral deaf children were pretested<br />

for expressive vocabulary4<br />

and syntax. 5 Half the children<br />

worked on LanguageLinks<br />

while the others worked on<br />

vocabulary training software.<br />

After 10 weeks the children were<br />

retested and then switched programs.<br />

After 20 weeks they were<br />

post-tested. The results:<br />

• Expressive syntax scores increased<br />

signi cantly after children had<br />

been using LanguageLinks, but<br />

not after using the vocabulary<br />

software.<br />

• Signifi cant gains in expressive<br />

Fun and e ective language learning!<br />

Prepositions!<br />

<strong>Learning</strong> prepositions is an essential step in language<br />

mastery. In addition to training 10 important prepositions,<br />

this all-new program will help your students follow simple<br />

directions that are necessary for school success.<br />

This program:<br />

• Trains 10 essential prepositions in a variety of<br />

contexts<br />

• Increases ability to follow directions<br />

• Helps ensure school success<br />

Suggested for students (Pre-K-8) with:<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental disabilities, languagelearning<br />

disorders, low vision, hearing impairments, and cochlear<br />

implants<br />

• Also English language learners (Pre-K-6)<br />

Product Description:<br />

This new Sterling Edition uses proven strategies to<br />

help children master essential prepositions. Six modules<br />

cover ten important prepositions in developmental order.<br />

Captivating three-dimensional characters and objects<br />

not only illustrate the prepositions being trained but<br />

also keep students focused and engaged in the learning<br />

process.<br />

Individualized Instruction!<br />

Using <strong>Laureate</strong>’s Optimized Intervention® technology,<br />

the program begins with an assessment to determine a<br />

student’s knowledge of prepositions. During training,<br />

the student is asked to select the correct picture from<br />

two or three choices (“Find… The apple is on the box.”).<br />

As the student works, the software continually monitors<br />

his or her responses and adjusts the instructional support<br />

accordingly.<br />

Document Performance<br />

Prepositions! features extensive data collection for<br />

documenting student performance. Built-in reports allow<br />

you to review your students’ learning activities over time<br />

and ensure accountability.<br />

Intensive practice on 1st and 2nd person<br />

Pronoun Perspective:<br />

1st and 2nd Person<br />

This all-new program is designed for students who<br />

struggle with 1st and 2nd person pronouns. These<br />

de cits impact both oral and written performance.<br />

This program:<br />

• Trains 1st and 2nd person pronouns<br />

• Develops 3rd person perspective<br />

• Improves social communication knowledge<br />

Suggested for students (Pre-K-8) with:<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental disorders, languagelearning<br />

disorders, low vision, hearing impairments, and cochlear<br />

implants<br />

• Also English language learners (Pre-K-6)<br />

Product Description:<br />

Many children with language impairments, and particularly<br />

those with ASD, have diffi culty understanding<br />

the 1st and 2nd person speaker/listener relationship. This<br />

leads to problems reporting on and reading narrative<br />

texts that require understanding of “Who said what to<br />

whom.” In terms of 1st and 2nd person pronoun reference,<br />

students must understand that when the speaker<br />

refers to her/himself, s/he uses 1st person pronouns and<br />

when s/he refers to the listener, 2nd person pronouns<br />

are used.<br />

This program provides practice comprehending 1st<br />

and 2nd person pronouns from a narrative perspective<br />

where the user is an observer. This approach diff ers from<br />

and complements the approach used for teaching 1st<br />

and 2nd person pronouns in <strong>Laureate</strong>’s LanguageLinks®. In<br />

those programs there is just one character on the screen<br />

and the student is always the second person.<br />

Sample command: Who says...”I have a ball.”<br />

How it works...<br />

Using <strong>Laureate</strong>’s Optimized Intervention® technology,<br />

the program begins with an assessment to determine<br />

where to begin training. As the student works, the<br />

software continually monitors his or her responses and<br />

uses this information to provide highly individualized<br />

language intervention. When the student masters both<br />

forms in a Module, the program automatically moves to<br />

the next Module.<br />

Pronoun Perspective features extensive data collection<br />

to document student performance and ensure<br />

accountability.<br />

Comprehensive reports are automatically generated<br />

at the end of each session allowing speech-language<br />

pathologists and special educators to quickly and easily<br />

review a student’s progress over time.<br />

Sample command: Who says... “Your bike is shiny.”<br />

questions (Who, Who, What, Where, Why, question “How How did the girl break the<br />

How, With What, and Yes/No). This piñata?” most likely requires an in-<br />

program systematically trains both strument answer “…with a bat” while<br />

syntactic and semantic aspects of “How is the girl dancing?” requires<br />

diff erent types of questions.<br />

a manner response “…on her toes.”<br />

A Variety of Question Forms<br />

Students who are learning to<br />

understand and respond to questions<br />

need to master many syntactic<br />

subtleties. For example, they need<br />

to know whether a question refers<br />

to the subject or the object of a<br />

sentence (Who is painting?/Who is<br />

the father painting?). They also need<br />

to discriminate between Yes/No- and<br />

Wh-Questions.<br />

In addition, students must understand<br />

the various semantic meanings<br />

of questions. For example, the<br />

Similarly, the question “Why is the girl<br />

sad?” requires a cause response “…<br />

because her balloon got away,” while<br />

the question “Why is the boy lling the<br />

washtub?” requires a purpose answer<br />

like “…to wash the dog.”<br />

Students must also learn that<br />

when more than one person is<br />

involved in an activity, a question<br />

such as “Who is washing the car?” requires<br />

an exhaustive response where<br />

all of the participants are named.<br />

Similarly, when a scene is described<br />

as “Everyone is reading something<br />

and eating something,” the response<br />

to “Who is reading what and eating<br />

what they are eating.<br />

Teachers pre-tested 14 oral deaf children<br />

with language delays using a 15 item<br />

Wh-Question elicited production test. 1 The<br />

children then used QuestionQuest for 30<br />

minutes per day, usually 3 times a week.<br />

• At post-test, scores on the Wh-Question<br />

elicited production test more than doubled;<br />

a diff erence that was highly signifi cant.<br />

• Improvements were evident across a range of initial ability. Some children who<br />

did not produce Wh-Questions on the pre-test did so after training. Others with<br />

initially limited production of Wh-Questions expanded their repertoire.<br />

These results indicate that using QuestionQuest was an eff ective way to provide<br />

children with the critical language input they needed to improve their abilities to<br />

understand, ask, and answer questions.<br />

Auditory Discrimination and Processing<br />

100 nouns and the sounds they make!<br />

Nouns & Sounds<br />

Here’s a fun, e ective way to increase auditory aware ness<br />

and build critical listening skills. In di vid u als of all<br />

ages will en joy exploring nouns, matching them with<br />

pho to graphs, iden ti fy ing sounds, and playing games that<br />

exercise auditory and visual short-term memory.<br />

This program:<br />

• Trains discrimination of 100 environmental sounds<br />

• Builds auditory awareness and listening skills<br />

• Exercises short-term memory<br />

Suggested for individuals (Pre-K through Adult) with:<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental disabilities, languagelearning<br />

disorders, low vision, hearing impairments, cochlear<br />

implants, TBI, and aphasia<br />

Product Description:<br />

Nouns & Sounds is an engaging program that<br />

encourages individuals to match common environmental<br />

sounds with 100 realistic photographs. Of the 100 nouns<br />

used in the program, half are acquired by typically<br />

developing children by 2 1 /2 years of age while the<br />

remainder are acquired later.<br />

Optimized Intervention® o ers improved training<br />

Using our Optimized Intervention technology, Nouns<br />

& Sounds begins with an assessment to determine which<br />

sounds a student can’t identify. During training, the student<br />

is asked to match a sound to a photograph (“Find<br />

the one that makes this sound… ‘meow’.”). The program<br />

continually tracks a student’s performance and uses this<br />

information to guide the learning process.<br />

Flexibility and control<br />

You decide whether to train using two or three<br />

choices, whether to have visual reinforcement on or o ,<br />

and whether to include text. At the end of each session,<br />

a performance summary is presented, allowing you to<br />

quickly review progress and ensure accountability.<br />

Sample command: “Which one makes this sound… ‘quack, quack’.”<br />

Nine Instructional Activities<br />

Optimized Intervention®<br />

This activity automatically assesses a student’s knowledge<br />

of common nouns and their sounds and then delivers highly<br />

individualized training. Based on a student’s responses, the<br />

program moves among three training levels, each with a<br />

di erent amount of instructional support.<br />

Training by Level<br />

Students are asked to match sounds with photographs. You<br />

can choose any one of the three training levels to accommodate<br />

individuals who need a xed level of support.<br />

Testing<br />

This activity can be used to document pre- or post-training<br />

performance.<br />

Three Additional Instructional Activities<br />

• Is this the Right Sound? asks students to decide whether a<br />

sound matches or does not match a picture.<br />

• Identifying Noun Sounds asks students to listen to a sound<br />

and identify the correct picture from 6, 8, or 12 choices.<br />

• Remember that Sound presents a sound and, after a short<br />

delay, asks the student to identify the correct picture from<br />

two or three choices.<br />

Three Supplemental Activities<br />

• Introducing Nouns and Sounds is a single switch activity that<br />

presents one noun and its sound at a time.<br />

• Exploring Noun Sounds lets users explore di erent sounds<br />

from an array of 6, 8, or 12 picture choices.<br />

• Concentrate on Noun Sounds asks students to nd two<br />

identical pictures from an array of 6, 8, or 12 cards that<br />

appear face down.<br />

Language Activities of Daily Living<br />

These all-new Sterling Edition programs offer<br />

functional language training for children and adults<br />

who need to learn about the objects and activities<br />

they encounter in their daily routines.<br />

These programs:<br />

• Train over 400 functional<br />

vocabulary items<br />

• Increase understanding of<br />

objects and their functions<br />

• Build independence in the<br />

home, community, and school<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental<br />

These all-new Sterling Editions<br />

encourage users to explore and interact<br />

with functional vocabulary words in<br />

realistic contexts. You select which<br />

scenes to use and how many items are<br />

shown and trained in each scene.<br />

Individualized Instruction<br />

Using <strong>Laureate</strong>’s Optimized<br />

Intervention® technology, the programs<br />

begin by off ering instruction<br />

on each object in a scene (“This is a<br />

sink. Find the sink.”). Then the user is<br />

asked to identify the items without<br />

instruction (“Find the refrigerator.”).<br />

Once an individual can identify each<br />

vocabulary item in a scene without<br />

instruction, the program automatically<br />

moves on to the next scene. You can<br />

also use Optimized Intervention to train<br />

the function of each item (“These are<br />

crosswalks. You should cross the street<br />

at crosswalks.”). Comprehensive builtin<br />

reports document performance<br />

and ensure accountability.<br />

The Sentence Master… A Program<br />

When Phonics Fails The Sentence Master<br />

Do you have students who are failing to<br />

learn to read? Stu dents for whom a phonics<br />

approach has not worked? The Sen tence Mas ter<br />

ensures success for stu dents who are at risk of<br />

read ing failure due to difficulties in phon ics<br />

and oral language. It’s also effective with<br />

English language learners and students with<br />

impulsive learn ing styles.<br />

Suggested for students (K-12) with:<br />

• Autism, intellectual and developmental<br />

disabilities, language-learning disorders,<br />

hearing impairments, and AAC users<br />

• Also appropriate for adults with<br />

developmental disabilities<br />

• Also English language learners (K-6)<br />

What exactly is The<br />

Sentence Master?<br />

It is a revolutionary remedial<br />

reading program developed by Dr.<br />

Marion Blank. The Sentence Master is<br />

designed for students who haven’t<br />

responded to a phonics-based<br />

approach.<br />

The Sentence Master ensures<br />

success by providing:<br />

• Mastery of non-content words<br />

The program focuses on noncontent<br />

words, such as “the,” “is,”<br />

“and,” etc. While limited in number,<br />

these words make up the majority<br />

of any page of text.<br />

• Failure-free learning<br />

All of the word activities and stories<br />

are designed so that students never<br />

have to read or write a word that has<br />

not been fully mastered.<br />

• An emphasis on accurate spelling<br />

This enables students to easily discriminate<br />

small diff erences in words<br />

(e.g. bus/but, top/too) and to eff ectively<br />

write every word they learn.<br />

• Carefully-controlled sentences<br />

Unlike other reading programs, the<br />

stories use tightly controlled syntax<br />

which facilitates the development of<br />

comprehension skills.<br />

These programs:<br />

• Increase reading<br />

comprehension<br />

• Teach critical reading skills<br />

• Foster independent reading<br />

What makes The<br />

Sentence Master<br />

so e ective?<br />

First, students learn to read<br />

and write one word per day.<br />

Students spend 15-30 minutes<br />

completing a series of computer<br />

and writing activities that teach one<br />

word a day. Many of the activities<br />

incorporate words already learned<br />

so that there is steady practice and<br />

review.<br />

Students then read<br />

complete stories.<br />

After learning a set of 3 to 15<br />

words, students see and read an<br />

animated story on the computer and<br />

then read the same story on paper.<br />

You’ll see significant improvement<br />

in reading and also<br />

the sense of accomplishment and<br />

growth in self-esteem that comes<br />

with success.<br />

“ The Sentence Master<br />

is designed so a child<br />

cannot fail.”<br />

Here’s how the<br />

The Word Activities<br />

Word Activities train<br />

new words that will later<br />

appear in stories.<br />

Four diff er ent computer activities teach<br />

one word per day. An encouraging voice<br />

provides guid ance and informational<br />

feed back, while optional amusing<br />

an i mat ed char ac ters reward cor rect<br />

answers and keep students engaged.<br />

Word Recognition<br />

Here, the student selects the word<br />

that match es the example at the top<br />

of the screen.<br />

Sequential Recognition<br />

In this activity, students select all instanc<br />

es of a particular word in the order<br />

they would nor mal ly read them.<br />

Spelling<br />

In a series of spelling ac tiv i ties that do<br />

not require letter nam ing, a student:<br />

• completes words by fi nd ing the missing<br />

letters on the screen<br />

• chooses letters from the screen to spell an<br />

entire word<br />

• types in the entire word<br />

Sentence Completion<br />

Here, the student fi nds the miss ing<br />

word to complete a sen tence.<br />

The Writing Activities<br />

With these activities, a stu dent writes,<br />

by hand or on the com put er, the word<br />

just learned as well as whole sentences<br />

con tain ing the new word and words<br />

that have al ready been taught.


for Success in Reading<br />

Succeeds... We Guarantee It!<br />

program works<br />

The Book Activities<br />

Stories on the computer<br />

foster independent<br />

reading.<br />

After learning a set of words, the student<br />

is introduced to an an i mat ed sto ry<br />

that con tains only mastered words. The<br />

use of tightly controlled syntax and<br />

increasingly complex sentences leads<br />

to enhanced comprehension. First, the<br />

com put er reads the sto ry aloud and<br />

then the stu dent reads it alone. Help<br />

is al ways avail able... at any time, the<br />

stu dent can have a word or the entire<br />

page read aloud by the com put er.<br />

Simple on-screen icons can be used<br />

to hear the text read aloud, re peat<br />

the an i ma tion sequence, and move<br />

forward or back ward with in the story.<br />

The Story<br />

Booklet Activities<br />

Printed stories transfer the<br />

reader to print with ease.<br />

After working with the sto ry on the<br />

com put er, a student is introduced to<br />

a print ed version of the same sto ry.<br />

After read ing it, the student completes<br />

sen tenc es by fill ing in the blank<br />

spac es. These ex er cis es are de signed<br />

to strength en both writ ing and compre<br />

hen sion skills.<br />

Four Levels<br />

of Reading Instruction<br />

The Sentence Master is divided<br />

into four lev els. At each level, the<br />

sentence struc tures and sto ries<br />

become pro gres sive ly more complex.<br />

Once your students have<br />

successfully com plet ed Lev el 1, you’ll<br />

want to con tin ue their progress with<br />

Lev els 2, 3, and 4.<br />

Each level of The Sen tence<br />

Mas ter contains:<br />

• 50-75 new words<br />

• 5 corresponding Word Activities<br />

• 8 animated computer sto ries<br />

• 8 Story Booklets with writ ing<br />

Placement Test<br />

for Choosing the<br />

Appropriate Level<br />

If you’re working with a non-reader,<br />

start with Level 1 and continue<br />

through Levels 2, 3, and 4.<br />

If your student has some read ing<br />

ability, please use the Assessment Test<br />

Frequently Asked Questions<br />

Should I buy an add-on touch screen or an<br />

integrated monitor?<br />

The add-on touch screen and integrated monitor<br />

work the same way, however, the integrated<br />

monitor is preferred for younger users.<br />

How do I determine my monitor size?<br />

If you have a standard monitor (not a wide<br />

screen or a laptop), you should measure the glass<br />

diagonally to determine your monitor and touch<br />

screen size.<br />

If you’re not sure, or if you do have a wide screen<br />

or laptop, visit www.laureatelearning.com/tw/<br />

where you’ll nd measurement instructions and a<br />

chart to help you select the correct size.<br />

?<br />

Do I need a technician to install an add-on<br />

touch screen?<br />

No, you can do it yourself. It shouldn’t take more<br />

than 15 min utes.<br />

Do I need to buy special software?<br />

No, touch screens work with any soft ware that<br />

uses a mouse.<br />

Can I still use my mouse?<br />

Yes, you can use both a touch screen and a<br />

mouse at the same time.<br />
