World of Words was originally created for learners of English as a foreign or additional language. It was soon
found to be useful also for children with special needs and for very young readers, though the pages tended to be too
cluttered. See the full version here.
Junior World of Words was created specifically with these children in mind. It differs from the complete version
in that there are more screens, but each one contains fewer words and has bigger pictures.
Words: Pointing at objects with the mouse brings up labels,
clicking on them allows the learner to hear the words spoken.
Quiz: Comprehension is tested by a "quiz" in which you are asked to find something in the picture, and you have to click on the correct object.
Writing: The writing option tests the user's ability to reproduce the language and spell the words correctly. Some hints will be given if required.
At the end of each session the learner is encouraged to print out a progress report.
