Early Reading For Older Students
Spinout Stories - Blue
Pack
The Spinout Stories CDs, and associated books, have been specifically designed to promote literacy among older students, in the upper primary and early secondary years, who have reading difficulties.
Two packs are currently available - Red and Blue. Each pack contains a CD-ROM with four stories on high-interest age related topics such as building sites, diesel engines, surfing, crocodiles, gorillas and dreaming. The blue pack contains The Best Mechanic, Diesels and Dirt, Reptile Zoo and Saltwater Crocodiles. In addition to the CDs the hardest levels of the stories can also be purchased separately in book form, to further support the use of the software.
Each Spinout Story has three different reading levels, of which the hardest has optional hypertext links to further information at an even higher reading level. There is also a Teacher's Guide and a set of printable worksheets. The software includes teacher controls, optional tracking facilities to monitor students' progress, extension activities related to the text, and a worksheet generator.
