Bert's Prehistoric Animals 3.2 Children's Coloring Registration $ 20.00
SDN_GAME SEP93 EDUCATIONAL CHILDREN KIDS COLORING PHEHISTORIC ANIMALS
FILES: bpacc32.sdn
Author: Theron Wierenga
Bert's Prehistoric Animals is an enjoyable coloring program for
children of all ages, but is especially useful for introducing
young children to the computer. Bert's Prehistoric Animals was
designed by educators to be used by young children with a minimum
of assistance by adults. As a coloring program Bert's Prehistoric
Animals is superior to many other children's coloring programs in
that it allows the user to place the various animals, all in four
different sizes, on a variety of backgrounds. This allows children
to easily create their own picture before coloring. The opportunity
to create their own picture will allow children to take pride in
their unique creation.
When first started Bert's Prehistoric Animals displays a title
screen and then the drawing surface with eight buttons on the left.
Children can operate the program with the mouse alone. A window is
provided which allows children to write a short story about their
picture using the keyboard. The fact that they created the picture
will help provide the motivation to write about it. One of the
best ways for children to learn to read is to write, even if their
initial attempts include phonetic spelling which is not always
correct. If your child is not ready to attempt writing his/her
story, then another good strategy is for you to type in your
child's story as he/she dictates it to you. Then have your child
read back the story he/she created. This is another very effective
beginning reading strategy. They will love creating a setting,
writing or dictating their own story and printing out a copy.
This upgrade includes voice - either through the PC speaker or Sound
Blaster card.
