Stickybear Early Learning Activities

Stickybear Early Learning Activities is an academic and pre-reading skills tutorial program designed for children from pre-kindergarten through first grade who have learning or developmental disabilities. The program features six separate learning activities with animation and sound which provide skills practice in the alphabet, counting, writing, shapes, opposites, and colors. The Alphabet activity provides a word, letter, and animation for every letter of the alphabet. The Counting activity helps children master the numbers 0 through 9 while they discover the effect of adding and taking away. The Writing activity introduces children to writing numbers and letters with ease. The Shapes activity helps children identify basic shapes found in everyday scenes. The Opposites activity helps children build word recognition and vocabulary skills, and the Colors activity allows children to color, identify and name colors found in scenes. Students can learn through prompted direction or through the discovery method by selecting either structured or non-structured mode of play. The school versions and above also come with freely reproducible lesson plans and manipulative masters. Available languages are English and Spanish. COMPATIBILITY: Windows or Macintosh.
