see the associated text and animation.
- Identification:
- Students are asked to identify nouns or verbs from selected scenes. You can choose any one of the three training levels.
- Mixed Explore/Identify:
- With this option, the program alternates between the Exploration and Identification activities.
- Testing:
- This activity can be used to document pre- or post-training performance.
- Supplemental activities:
- Word Introduction (Cards) presents a single word and its associated animation on a black background.
- Word Introduction (Scene) introduces vocabulary items one at a time until a full scene is displayed.
- Animated routines use enriched language to expand knowledge of selected nouns and verbs.
Exploring Nouns
This program is designed to train 120 early developing nouns using 10 engaging, full-screen settings.
There is also an option to train 30 of the earliest developing words in 5 simple scenes.

|
Exploring Verbs
This program is designed to train 50 early developing verbs using 8 captivating, full-screen settings.
The first four scenes use girls to illustrate the verbs and the final four scenes use boys.
|
Individualized Instruction
The programs begin by offering instruction on each object in a scene (“This is a horse. Find the horse”). Then the student is asked to identify the nouns or verbs without instruction (“Show me… ‘The girl is singing.’”). Once a student can identify each vocabulary item in a scene without instruction, the program automatically moves to the next scene.
These programs offer two types of reinforcement for correct answers: either the noun/verb animates or amusing characters perform a short skit using enriched language.
Document Performance
Exploring Nouns and Exploring Verbs feature extensive data collection for documenting student performance. Built-in reports allow you to review your students’ learning activities over time and ensure accountability.
