My six middle school age students with low functioning autism LOVE Click to Read! We use it for independent work in the morning, each chid spends time on the computer using the reading program and then once a week we do it as a whole group activity. They really enjoy the games that are part of the programs as well. Yesterday we used it as whole class activity on the SmartBoard and I was so pleased with how well they are able to remember the vocab! — Beth Winebrenner, Autism Teacher, Connecticut
