Letts
The Letts range of GCSE titles are revision courses on CD-ROM covering every exam board. Each title is designed with the specific course in mind--you cannot revise the same way for each subject (as there are no set "right" or "wrong" answers in English, unlike Chemistry for example). Once the program has been installed (please note you will still need to put the CD in the drive due to the large amount of content) you will need to log in as a user. Multiple users can be entered and all individual scores and progress will be stored. You're now ready to revise. The main screen provides three main options-Revision, Progress and Mock Exam. "Revision" is broken into the main study sections and includes exam and revision hints and tips. "Progress" is where you'll find the records of results, how much content you've covered and which areas need more practice. The "Mock Exam" includes the answers, so you can test yourself first or run through the paper and view the answers at the same time. As well, the software comes with a manual that's also available online within the program, a timer which allows you to set limits for revision sessions and a pop-up notebook. Titles available in the Letts GCSE range are Maths, English, Science, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Geography, French, German and Spanish.

Spark Island Reading Games is an excellent set of interactive reading games for children aged between five and seven, which will help to consolidate work that is being done by children in the Literacy hour at school.Children choose activities from a map and are introduced to the games by a range of helpful characters from Sparklantis, a submerged city. Children are rewarded with megahops at the end of each activity and they can keep track of their score and also print out a certificate.
There is a choice of six games that develop a range of skills. Photo fun requires children to put a set of named photos in alphabetical order. This is also a very good activity for developing children's control of the mouse, as they have to click and drag the photos to the correct place on a list. Children have to distinguish between vowels and consonants when playing Letter Bubbles. Seaweed Supreme challenges children have to complete words by finding missing pieces. This activity consolidates reading and spelling strategies. Younger children may need adult support with this activity. Syllabubbles tests children's knowledge of the number of syllables in a range of words. Pinball Pairs involves the children finding pairs of words with the same meaning. Children can try to outsmart the Wise Wizard, by choosing an animal and then answering a range of questions, so that he can guess which animal they have chosen.
There is an outstanding guide for parents, which goes through the games listing the skills that children will be developing and how parents should approach the activity with their child. Ideas are given for follow-up activities and there are even materials that can be printed out and used with children to consolidate and extend the activities.
All, in all this CD-ROM would be an excellent purchase for children aged five to seven. --Amanda York
