Softbasics Soft-Pak (3 LA/ Test programs )

After reading, click the BACK button to return to the MAIN page

The partial screen shots below represent a tiny fraction of the huge number of different activity pages that are available in the 3 language arts and test programs in the Soft-Pak. The user may now select from background colors of WHITE, GRAY, or BLUE simply by clicking the screen. See samples of each type below. The screen shots displayed here are partial images of the full screens to save space and reduce image file size for quicker downloads (therefore, some may appear less than perfectly sharp but they do give a good idea of the activity's objective).

Each activity is designed to assist the student in the mastery of a different math objective. Below you will see activities from Language Arts Master, Test Maker, and Test Master.

Language Arts Master

Language Arts Master offers a large number of options, with the option selection page shown here.

Here the Spelling Find and Fix option is shown. LA Master offers over 4000 words and this option allows the user to find and then correctly spell the incorrect word.

In this option, the user reads the words presented. This option may also be used to practice spelling the words. Notice the PERSONAL word lists option - these words may be added using the Test Maker program to supplement the 4000 words already included. This makes the program much more flexible since any vocabulary words used in a particular curriculun may be used as well.

This partial screen shot shows a reading recall activity. The user reads a five line passage and then answers 3 questions about the details of the passage. This requires the reader to concentrate on facts presented and to retain them.

This grammar option involves parts of speech recognition. The user must identify the correct part of speech and click the corresponding button. Examples and definitions are provided for help.

This option requires the user to identify and correct 2 writing errors (some sentences contain no errors and the user must also indicate this). Spelling, usage, apostrophes, and ending punctuation are covered.
