There's all kinds of great educational software out there but there are also tons of useful tools right on the Internet. I have been doing a bit of research on talking e-books. If you want to get an idea about these books, check out this website:

This is great for primary grades. There are all kinds of phonics books available. Some are letter and sound themed and others are occasion themed. I really like this idea because anyone who has had to price out a set of guided reading books, or a set of phonics books knows how expensive these books are for the school. These talking e-books are completely accessible online and no password is required. There must be about 100 different books available for students to access. I know you can actually create talking e-books using Powerpoint and I have downloaded a document that explains how. I hope to talk more about this in a future blog entry.
