Students are actively

engaged through all
components of the
software, rather its
singing, doing the body
movements, or finding
certain objects that
pertain to that particular
letter.

Students can not

interrupt or save
their work. This
software is used
mostly for whole
group.

This software works

on several machines
but you must have a
disk drive to install or
have a portable one.

Reasonably
priced with
numerous
features for the
cost.
