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 />

How to Use<br />
the Checklist<br />
Begin by answering the questions<br />
on the Language Stage<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 />
Even if the characteristics described<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 />
to receive multiple programs at a<br />
discount.<br />

Who Will Bene t From the<br />
Language Development Packages?<br />
A wide range of students can benefi t from using<br />
the programs in these packages. Level 1 focuses on<br />
early vocabulary and concept development with a<br />
transition to syntax.<br />
Level 2 includes training in basic syntactic forms<br />
and structures, building a narrative perspective, and<br />
connecting nouns with the sounds they make.<br />
In addition to its use with students who have<br />
language disorders, Level 2 is ideal for addressing<br />
the needs of kindergarten and 1st grade children at<br />
risk for reading failure in schools using the Response<br />
to Intervention (RTI) model of service delivery.<br />
Classroom use of these programs helps children<br />
master the sentence forms and structures necessary<br />
for the development of communication competence<br />
and reading comprehension.<br />
Language Development Package - Level 1<br />
• Young children on IFSPs or IEPs who need to build<br />
a core noun and verb vocabulary, develop basic<br />
category concepts, and master basic subject-verbobject<br />

who still have not acquired a basic 150 word<br />
vocabulary<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 />
Gagné, P., & Beal-Alvarez, J.<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 />

Deaf Children*<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 />
vocabulary were measured<br />
in both groups but were not<br />
related to which program was<br />
being used.<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 />

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 />
Suggested for individuals (Pre-K<br />
through Adult) with:<br />
• Autism, intellectual and developmental<br />
disabilities, language-learning disorders,<br />

Product Description:<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 />
