Choose and Tell: Legends
Building on the success of Choose and Tell: Nursery Rhymes, this CD takes your learners on a magical adventure based on legends from different cultures.
Packed with fun decisions to make and challenging puzzles to solve, this fully switch and touch screen accessible program is sure to motivate your students!
Join Jason, Sir Lancelot, the Pharaoh, Hiawatha or Rama on a spellbinding adventure across five locations. Pick a destination and a mode of transport. Encounter monsters who will set a question with a configurable difficulty level for easy differentiation. Complete with auditory scanning.
Choose & Tell: Legends has a video game "feel" to it and features Sir Lancelot, Hiawatha, the Pharaoh and more. Accessible by keyboard, mouse, touchscreen, and switch scanning.
You can tailor the activities in Choose and Tell to suit your students` needs:
You can decide whether the student will be offered a choice of two or three items on each decision-making page. (They will always be offered all five characters to choose from, regardless of the selection made here)
This option allows the Back Button, which lets the student go back and choose a different item, to be disabled.
Choose whether to use the mouse, touch screen, keyboard, IntelliKeys or one or two switches
This controls the single switch scanning function, which automatically selects each interactive object on the screen in turn. It regulates the length of time that each object is highlighted before moving on to the next.
The Scan Colour option controls the colour of the scan outline that appears when interactive objects on the screen are selected.
You can decide to have the name of each choice shown on the screen read out as they are scanned. They will also be read out if you roll over the object with the mouse pointer.
Choose and Tell includes a "pre-acceptance delay" function. This is useful for students who make brief involuntary switch presses which you don`t want the program to recognise. If you set the delay to 0.4 seconds, the program will only accept switch presses that last longer than 0.4 seconds.
An easy way to access ready-to-print pictures from the game that can be used in activities away from the computer. Black and white versions are also available for your students to colour in.
Get the best from your IntelliKeys
All software in the Choose and Tell series have support for the IntelliKeys. They feature a built-in scanning overlay, allowing students to use the IntelliKeys to write their own story.
