WhisperPhone® (CFWP)
The WhisperPhone® is an acoustical voice-feedback headset that enables learners of all ages to focus and hear the sounds that make up words (phonemes) more clearly as they learn to read, spell, or process language aloud. The WhisperPhone® is fun and easy to use, while research has proven that users can hear phonemes ten times more clearly when they're wearing the WhisperPhone®. That means that they can hear themselves better over background noise and can focus better on what they're learning. Applications include reading and spelling, special needs settings, and learning of a new language.

Spanish SnapWords™ List 1 (SWSP1)
 New! Bilingual SnapWords™ are perfect for native English speakers learning Spanish or for working with children in a bilingual classroom. Set 1 includes 60 high-frequency words, and will be followed by two more sets for a total of 172 words. The fronts of the cards show a stylized word that provides children with a way to grasp the meaning of the word and remember its meaning. On the reverse of each card is the plain word without the image, a sentence using that word in Spanish and the English translation.

TOOBALOO (Toob)
 The TOOBALOO is a phone-like device that allows children to hear their sounds and words distinctly while speaking softly into it. Uses for the TOOBALOO are endless; some suggestions follow. Whole classes can practice reading aloud to themselves without bothering other students. This gives students oral reading time, and at the same time, allows the teacher to move around the classroom and listen to individuals read. Small groups can use TOOBALOOS at a center to practice rereading. Students can use TOOBALOOS during or after a guided reading group. Students can individually practice reading and rereading the stories they are working on. Students can check out a TOOBALOO to take home and practice with.
