Software Guidance Corporation
Ages 7 to 12
Rating Scale
5 = great, 1 = poor Educational Value
Kid Appeal
Ease of Use System Requirements PC / Mac Price Survey Product Support The Advanced Scholar’s US Capitals is a solid program with a clear and attainable mission. Children will learn U.S. geography and state capitals by diligently using the six different facets of the program. The program is set up to teach geography and capitals in a game show manner, which kept SuperKids' young users interested and intellectually involved in the program. Educational Value The Advanced Scholar’s US Capitals is founded on educational benefits. Users can 'Visit Each State' where they can view the state map and the flag. In this section of the program they can learn the capital name, state history, and state facts. At the 'U.S. Map' users can click on a state for the name of that state and state capital. Users can also click on 'Multiple Choice,' 'Fill in the Blank,' and 'Match the State,' where they can learn and practice state capital knowledge. 'Locate the State' reinforces geography skills. These sections will teach children the program’s objectives in a positive and encouraging manner. Kid Appeal Kids will enjoy this program because they learn so much valuable information while they have a lot of fun. It is perfect for the child who enjoys learning classroom material outside of the classroom as well the kid who likes or needs supplements to classroom lessons. Our third grade tester would not leave the computer until she matched all the states with their capitals in 'Match the State!'

"To Market, To Market" is a software program that can be used for teaching early number concepts. The activities included in the software are engaging and entertaining. The program is designed to build on children’s intuitions about the nature of number. This reflects what mathematics educators and researchers have learned about how children construct concepts of number. Children, using the software, discover relationships (more, less, one more than, one less than, and part-part-whole) that provide a foundation for developing understandings of mathematical operations. The use guide of "To Market, To Market" contains valuable information for teachers. A short summary of research pertinent to children’s learning early number concepts is included. I particularly appreciated the chart showing how the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards and principles are addressed by various games in the program. A matrix of specific concepts and skills matched with games and levels of games allows teachers to direct students to appropriate places for students to work. Teachers will also find the ‘Using the Game to Teach’ most helpful. These pages contain instructional guidance, user tips, and classroom guidance. The resources show teachers

SOFTWARE AND TECHNOLOGICAL EQUIPMENT
Spell-checkers - A 4th grade student of mine is dyslexic and struggles very much with spelling. He has the most wonderful ideas for stories, but when it comes time to put those ideas on paper, it looks atrocious. He spells everything phonetically, and at times he doesn’t even do that. We do a lot of proof-reading when he writes, and he knows that they are wrong, he just doesn’t have a clue of what he needs to do to change it. I decided that I would try using a spell-checker with him to see if anything improved. His mother was very apprehensive at first, and did not want him relying on a device to help him with his disability. She felt that he needed to learn how to spell on his own, and that by using a spell-checker it was not going to remedy that problem.

Numbers Undercover
Go undercover and find the missing numbers in interactive math mystery! The Sunbuddies are up to their elbows in fun, mystery and intrigue in this interactive math challenge for kids in kindergarten through 3rd grade. After all, a puzzling math mystery must be solved! Wonderful animation and 3D graphics, well-developed characters, and age-appropriate content makes this program soar to the top of the stack in today's early learning math software! Each mystery includes four multi-level activities which help teach kids how to tell time with analog and digital clocks; counting money; measuring and estimating; and recognizing number patterns. Since numbers are mysteriously disappearing all over town, young gumshoes are asked to visit the interesting office of Max's Detective Agency to help gather clues and solve the case of the missing digits. Two modes: Practice and Solve Mystery allow kids to get comfortable turning into number detectives. Practice lets students play the activities of their choice (and set their own levels and play unlimited rounds), while Solve Mystery allows kids to hunt for clues by completing each different activity. Teachers and parents can set activity levels, order of activities played, and number of rounds for each activity in the Solve Mystery mode.

The Education Corner: Review of the Music Ace Series
by Joel Brazy Welcome to Lentine's education corner. Let's talk. . .
The wonderful thing in life is that every single person, whether knowingly or subconsciously is educating his or herself. Human education begins in the womb, and only ceases when we pass on. It comes from all sources, and we pass it on from one generation to the next. That's a pretty powerful concept.
A subset of general education is Music Education. Once again, every man woman and child knowing it or not, is exposed to new and old music styles, thereby expanding their musical knowledge. The greatest part of Music is that we have the ability to expose others i.e. pass it on, share it, and educate others as to why a particular selection of music is special to us.
The hard part about all this is the fundamentals. When a person decides they wish to learn more about Music, how can they go about it ? Well, consider that Music is a language all to itself, with complex communication structures, narratives and conversational infrastructure. These are called Notation and Orchestration or Arrangements of music. With all written and spoken (or in this case sounded) languages, we have to learn the basics before we advance. I mean, you have to learn to walk before you dance, right ?
For music, the basics are called Theory. Music Theory is much different than a "theoretical happening" in Law, Physics, or other subjects. Music Theory is the building block for understanding all musical compositions, and gives the student the ability to read, write, and compose music. The big problem here is how to convey the message in a complete way, but not be dry and boring. In the past, we had basically just books. The teachers would hand us Hanon for finger exercises, and in my case, a book called Applied Music Theory - while informative, it was definitely not a best seller. Then we had the teachers, that are still essential to the process, but they were also limited by the structured learning process of the time.
