Publisher's Description of AlphaBetter Drill Masters with SuperSlate
Do your children find dictionaries a pain? In a way we can’t blame them. Even for us big folks, looking something up in a phone book or dictionary can be a chancy adventure—like walking into a trackless jungle never to return! In fact, many of us tend to avoid reference books entirely. As a result, we’re probably not as knowledgeable or as capable as we might be. We’d rather pay extra for directory assistance than look up a number in the phone book!
A key reason for our “reference phobia” can be a simple lack of mastery of the alphabet. When you have to back up to A and sing the Alphabet Song to figure out if Q comes before T, it can be a real pain to find things which are arranged alphabetically!
AlphaBetter® encompasses 16 Levels of drill. Your child repeats a given Level each day until he can complete it correctly within the suggested 4-minute time limit (usually about ten repeats). Then he advances to the next Level. Thus, AlphaBetter carries the average student through one school year. AlphaBetter also includes the instructor’s SmartGuide™ QuicKeys®, and a beautiful Achievement Record.
