The visual way to think, write and comprehend...Kidspiration version 2.1
Created for K-5 learners, Kidspiration® provides an easy way to apply the proven principles of visual learning. Students build graphic organizers by combining pictures, text and spoken words to represent thoughts and information. Younger learners develop early literacy skills, and more advanced students improve comprehension skills and better organize ideas for writing.
K-5 learners use Kidspiration to:
Categorize and group ideas
Express and organize thoughts
Comprehend and communicate
Tap multiple learning styles
The powerful combination of visual representations, text-based outlines and Kidspiration's speech capabilities encourages learning in multiple modes.
Develop emerging literacy skills
Students take advantage of the power of the picture to build early reading and writing skills. With Symbol Maker, they draw to visually express their thoughts. Paired words and symbols in Writing View help students make the literacy connection.
Categorize and group ideas
SuperGrouper® shapes - symbols that represent main topics or concepts - offer young students a visual way to sort, group, classify and compare. Students simply drag words or picture symbols into SuperGrouper shapes to show relationships. With Kidspiration, students can now create Venn diagrams or choose any symbol to represent categories - adding more visual meaning to grouping activities.
Express and organize thoughts
Using Kidspiration, students advance through the writing process, developing well-organized stories and reports. In Picture View, they create graphic organizers to brainstorm and organize ideas. Work is automatically available in Writing View format for drafting. Then with one click, projects can be moved to a word processor to be finalized.
Build comprehension skills
In Put Reading First, the National Reading Panel cites the use of graphic organizers as a key strategy for developing text comprehension. With Kidspiration, students use graphic organizers to show and explore relationships as well as improve comprehension and retention of information.
