Description:
 
Microgram software - academic software. This software is ideal for reading for comprehension.
 
Students read about Marty Mathews' many interesting relatives and ancestors in stories authored by an experienced reading specialist. The series contains 160 stories in all, 40 for each grade. Each story is illustrated, and each is accompanied by eight comprehension questions. Glossary words are included, aiding in comprehension in reading.
 
As students work, they choose a story to read, and then answer four reading comprehension questions presented by Marty's grandma. Students can have the computer pace their reading at any of nine different speeds. Student work on ten kinds of comprehension questions is monitored, and reports can be printed or saved to disk.
 
Reloading saved data for subsequent sessions is useful in Chapter I settings. Multiple choice vocabulary tests covering the glossary words in each group of ten stories also are included in the program for pre and post testing, or just for fun.
 
As children read these materials, they are motivated by curiosity about Marty's relatives and amused by similarities between Marty's ancestors and famous characters of fact and fiction. Reading comprehension practice in a fun way!
