Roxie's Reading Fish
offers an enjoyable 3D animated game environment in which children
easily learn basic, high-frequency words from the pre-school age to
late-second grade level. Additionally, parents and teachers can record
their own words, and create word lists for use in the game, greatly
extending the educational value and the age-level of the product.
In Roxie's Reading Fish, Roxie, a friendly, animated, talking cat, plays
"Go Fish" with a child, but, instead of asking for a number, asks for a
word from a list of over two hundred basic, high-frequency words, which
were chosen with the aid of reading specialists in education. Roxie
gently guides the child in selecting the correct word card.
When a "Go Fish" game is completed, Roxie then sets up a "memory" game.
To play, the child needs to find pairs of words and patterned tiles.
When a match is made, Roxie will say that word. The words used are all
words from the next reading level. In this way, the child painlessly
begins to learn the next set of words he or she will encounter in the
next levels of the game. When they reach the next level, they already
have some familiarity with those words, and learn them much more
quickly!
Roxie's Reading Fish now incorporates a feature where the parent or
teacher can record their own words, and enter their word lists into the
program with an easy-to-use database. Word lists are easy to enter,
select, modify and delete when no longer needed. With these features,
the child can now learn words with which they are having difficulty, or
words that they would like to learn to read, or words in a book they
will be reading, extending the program's life considerably.
Roxie's Reading Fish is used in schools and libraries in the U.S. and
Europe.
Roxie's Reading Fish was selected by HomePC Magazine (Oct, 1996) as a
"must have" program, and is the most popular of the early elementary
level downloads on ZDNet (www.zdnet.com). Roxie's Reading Fish is a
finalist in the 1997 Ziff-Davis Shareware Awards.
