Learn to Read George Canine is a unique literacy app: - The content and delivery method aligns with the most recent New South Wales Department of Education guidelines for an early reading programme. - The lessons are clearly taught and carefully sequenced so that students build up their literacy skills. - The lessons are highly interactive, engaging and motivating. All of the content is practised through games. - The instruction includes multi-sensory experiences, that is, visual, auditory and tactile experiences, like letter finger-tracing. Research shows that this is the most effective way to learn. - From the very first lesson onwards, students are shown how their newly learned skills can be used to read, spell and write letters and words. - Positive and constructive feedback is provided for every response. - The instruction and interactive practice games are woven into imaginative, familiar stories with which students can identify. This strategy enables students to connect their reading experiences with real-life experiences. - The app is designed for teacher-led sessions, or it can be used independently by students.
