Simon Sound It Out!

Simon S.I.O. (Sound It Out) is software program from Don Johnston that provides beginning readers with individualized instruction and corrective feedback.  Similar to Starfall, Students navigate through Simon systematically and at their own pace as they learn phonics and word families.  Students also practice spelling, differentiation of similar words, and reading newly learned words within texts.  Simon collects data during every activity and produces detailed progress reports so that teachers can monitor student progress.  One great feature of Simon is that teachers can listen to students reading word and sentence recordings and analyze overall scores from activities.

Students who need extra time and practice learning letter sounds, word families, and blends will most likely benefit the most from Simon.  This program is also single switch adjustable for students with motor disabilities.  Simon is an excellent supplement to any early classroom phonics instruction!
