educational software for primary school

[carstensdj]

Hi all,

Someone I know works at a primary school and wants to get software that teaches the kids how to:

- Use the internet and how to search properly and see fact from fiction etc...
- Spelling
- Reading

If any of you could help with suggestions or advice it would be greatly appreciated!

This will definitely suit your needs.

Use the internet and how to search properly and see fact from fiction etc...

That's something learned from a teacher.
