suitable for students of all ages, developed for use in schools,
colleges, adult education programmes, vocational literacy and home
use. These successful software packages are currently in use at over
40% of all Australian schools!
SuperSpell has a
strong educational basis - students work on their own individualised
program based on diagnosed weaknesses and the word lists are based on
phonic skills and common spelling patterns.
Teachers - create and edit your own lists of words to integrate
SuperSpell into your students' overall literacy program.
The
educational content of the SuperSpell packages has a strong developmental
structure. The content is not age or grade related.
SuperSpell
- A Day At The Beach
The
SuperSpell program is designed to assist users of all ages
develop spelling skills at their own pace in a friendly and stimulating
environment. The Australian version retains or enhances all the
educational benefits of the original SuperSpell program but enables
the user to learn in a fun and stimulating environment.
It uses
Australian/English
spelling and Australian and British speech files - the cartoons
with Australian accents are really entertaining.
"A Day
At The Beach" has full speech capability and words presented
in sentences that will develop spelling, reading, grammar and
vocabulary building skills.
The program has
seven fun activities, four of which are based on the SuperSpell
word lists or User word lists. The other three activities are based
on commonly misspelt words, compound words and vocabulary building exercises.
The seven activities are presented in an exciting game play environment.
The user is invited
to spend the day at the beach with a family called "The Hoopers".
Each activity has fully animated cartoon sequences and exciting hotspots.
Correct responses in any of the activities earn reward points which
can be spent at two shops - a General Store and a Beach Goods Store.
When points are spent the user is rewarded by a funny cartoon sequence.
SuperSpell
Assessment CD
SuperSpell "Assessment
Disk" has four spelling tests - a placement test, and three diagnostic
tests which establish the user's stage of spelling development and pinpoint
specific spelling weaknesses. Results are compiled and stored
for each individual user; these can be viewed on screen or printed.
The user
can stop any test at any stage and return to the Main Menu. Upon choosing
the test again the user has the option of beginning from where the test
was stopped or starting the test again.
