Description
• read the text and answer questions. Studywiz has a good variety of texts sorted into 'Themes' ranging from Fables, through Poetry to other fiction and non-fiction texts. In each theme there are selections of books varying in length which are colour-coded to indicate reading difficulty. • read the text in stages. The text will be revealed sentence by sentence so the text is not too overfacing • read disappearing text - set the speed and work on reading faster • pick out keywords from the text. When you think you have enough keywords, click on the Hide button. The text now disappears and it is your turn to tell the story. • Existing books can be modified, either textually; by adding additional photographs or illustrations, or by altering the associated questions in order to focus them more directly to your own teaching objectives. • Studywiz offers access to differentiated activities which support all four of the communication modes. i.e. reading, writing, speaking and listening. • Keywords - skills of scanning for information, accurate note taking and re-telling using the keywords as prompts. • Voice Recording – record the stories with suitable, silly, formal or themed voices.
