Features
The RM Easiteach Language Arts Toolbar has been developed by education experts to enable you to do all this and more.
Editing
Big
Edit teaches students how the editing process can improve their text. A
text (e.g. a sentence or phrase) is selected within a RM Easiteach
page. When the Big Edit tool is selected from the Language Arts
Toolbar, the selected phrase will appear at the top of the Big Edit
window. The phrase can then be repeatedly edited with the final version
of the sentence or phrase being pasted back into the original text.
Word & Sentence Builder
Once
this tool is selected it enables teachers to select cards containing
common words and word endings and to place these on the RM Easiteach
screen. As well as providing a range of ready-made cards, teachers can
also create their own cards. The cards fit together and can be used to
build words from their parts or sentences from whole word cards. The
cards can even be printed out and stuck on card for use away from the
computer.
Remove Punctuation and Capitals Tool
This
great tool enables teachers to remove punctuation from any text source,
allowing the students to be able to drag the punctuation back to its
correct position. This tool also allows you to remove the capital
letters.
Cloze This
neat tool makes a cloze activity in seconds. Choose a text, and then
simply click on a word to send it to the word wallet, with the word
being replaced by an underline. The words can then be dragged from the
word wallet into their correct places.
Highlight Tool
This
versatile tool allows you to identify different categories of words
pictorially, be it nouns and verbs, spelling patterns, or rhyming
sequences - its uses are endless.
Timer
This
fun tool allows teachers to set time limits for tasks thus improving
the pace of the lesson for both the teacher and the students.
