Overview:

Bring your child to the computer. Raise the chair. Start the WriteTalk program. Now you are ready, and your child can use your computer. Your child sees nothing but a blank green screen. Let him play with the keyboard. Each key he presses is displayed large on the screen, and the phonetic sound is heard. He can use backspace to correct sounds, if he presses space it sounds a whole word correctly instead of phonetically. He will become fascinated that the computer can talk, and he will be learning to read and write. If you help him write a sentence when you press the final period it will say the whole sentence with appropriate intonation. There are checkbox options for letter names instead of sounds, and with all options unselected it merely reads what you have written each time you press the period at the end of the sentence.
