After one full year of unscrambling words and filling in letters, Monica Barrera (shown in photo on left) got to the very end of the Carmen Sandiego Word Detective computer program and solved the puzzle successfully to finish the game!

Robert Sykes and his tutor Naomi (shown in photo on right) have been working steadily and creatively to achieve great results. They borrow vintage radio programs on CD from the library and listen to them together on our lab computers. Next they type sections of the stories and other related information into Read Please. They then listen to the text, follow along on screen, make corrections, and have meaningful discussions. Robert recently achieved a major breakthrough in his skills by reading aloud a significant section of text from an episode of The Saint.
