Having Writing Come Alive

There is a magic to the computer. Among its powers is the capability of making the written page come alive. You can see this, for example, in software programs where stories are read aloud as the pages appear on the screen. The combination of seeing attractive pages of print while simultaneously hearing the words is unbeatable.

Now you can give some of that power to your child through free software that speaks the words that your child writes. Natural soft is one such program and you can find it at http://www.naturalreaders.com/?gclid=CIvX-ajBtowCFRKsGgodEBPORg.

Everything comes alive...I've had the great privilege of working and learning with Dr. Blank over the last year...everything I thought I knew, I now know I never knew...certainly not as a living thing...my students, their families and my staff all benefit from Dr. Blank's influence on my thinking as it relates to the way I now approach teaching advanced language to youngsters with language problems...After a year...I've come to realize that many more years sitting at your feet...would probably not be enough.

Thanks Marion...to many more years...
