HMHLT Read, Write & Type! 3.1

Read, Write & Type! presents a ground-breaking approach to early language education that reflects 10 years of classroom research. By using phonics to link reading with writing, this unique program teaches three essential skills - reading, writing, and typing - simultaneously. The Talking Hands feature provides spoken instruction and demonstrates each keystroke to help students learn the sounds of each letter and where each letter is located on the keyboard. As they progress through 40 adventure-filled lessons and activities, students quickly develop the phonics and typing skills they need to create their own words, sentences, and stories.
