Reflections on Observation Task 5: Literacy Software / Web-based Programs

1. Were there any literacy software/web based programs used in the classroom?
If there were, select (a); if there were not, select (b).

a) What did early childhood literacy skills the software/web-based programs

b) Provide at least two (2) literacy/web-based programs that the teacher can use to
help assist her students in developing their early literacy skills.

In my classroom teacher used the letter school application that help the low level

think about the word that begin with sound A for example, In my lesson I include
different kind of apps for my student to change learn way and because its effective
and develop them. I put the IPad in literacy area to make children work in that area
because most of them ignore this area.
