Assistive Literacy Software: Computer Assisted Literacy Solution

Computer Assisted Literacy Solution is a computer aided program that teaches students the phonemic awareness and letter sound combination that students need to be successful readers. The program repeats skills that the students needs and will set short term goals that are made individually for each student. Once the student has mastered his/her goals they go onto the next skill. The skills range from recognizing phonemes (the basic skills needed to read fluently) all the way up to reading comprehension (reading for meaning). Activities range from isolated skills tests to reading short books and completing comprehension questions. The video below gets Teacher, Administrator and Student testimonials on the program. CALS was created in 2005 by the Rotary Club.
