What The Experts Say About Read, Write & Type!
"We have been using Read, Write & Type! to support small group instruction in reading for first grade children who are identified as at risk for reading failure. This project is being conducted with support from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. With its emphasis on phonological awareness, letter-sound knowledge and phonetic decoding in reading and spelling, Read, Write & Type! is entirely consistent with recent discoveries that underline the importance of these skills to the growth of good reading ability."
"Read, Write & Type! is an excellent example of the very best in computer applications to provide support for children learning to read. The program not only incorporates the most important principles of beginning reading instruction, but it has also brought them together in a package that is very engaging for children. The great strength of Read, Write & Type! is that it provides explicit and systematic instruction in reading and spelling strategies in the context of meaningful and engaging writing and reading activities."
