ClickStart™ Game: Learning Carnival

Phonics skills

To read independently, children must understand the relationship between the sounds in spoken words and the letters that represent those sounds.

Word building

As children put together letters to make words, they learn how even small changes (changing mat to man to can) result in completely new words.

Phonological Awareness

Along with learning language and letters, phonological awareness - the ability to pick out and play with sounds in words (such as syllables and rhymes)- is essential for learning to read.

Rhyming

Children learn that rhyming words have the same ending sounds and often share spelling patterns, which helps develop vocabulary.

The Alphabet

Children who can recognize letters with confidence have an easier time learning letter sounds and word spellings.

Colors

Naming colors gives children words to describe themselves and the world, fostering language development.

Sorting and classifying

Sorting and classifying objects based on size, function, or weight involves logical reasoning skills essential for learning.

Keyboarding

Learning to use the keyboard is another step in becoming computer literate. It can take a while for children to learn the positioning of each key, but simply searching for the right key helps children with letter recognition. Eventually, they'll be able to use the keyboard commands as an alternative to using the mouse.

Mousing

Children start off using the computer mouse before they learn how to use the keys. It's best to get a child-sized mouse so that it's small enough for children to handle correctly. Within a short space of time children become adept at navigating the screen using the mouse to point and click.

Screen Navigation

Children quickly learn the basics of screen navigation. By pointing and clicking they can open programs they can use to help them learn.
