In the video we visit several different classes in the Preparatory School and see some excellent interactive teaching. The children are all equally enthusiastic working with the Graphemechart and magnetic graphemes to spell out words, and building sentences using the phoneme-grapheme cards.

The teachers tell us how THRASS has changed the standard of literacy, spelling, reading and writing, and how excited the children all are about it. The school has seen a huge increase in the spelling, synthesising and word-building skills of all children, even the weakest. The teachers have found it an enlightening experience to bring THRASS into the school and to implement it in the classroom.

The parents are also very excited about THRASS and they are working closely with the school, something which is essential in order for the children to be able to consolidate what they are learning on an individual basis. It is a very exciting venture that they have all embarked on together and the children are very excited to be able to teach their parents.

We also see the teachers getting a preview of the SING-A-LONG interactive book. They think the music is just wonderful, particularly for children who have auditory and perceptual problems, and are really looking forward to being able to buy the SING-A-LONG resources and to be able to implement SING-A-LONG in the school to complement all the other ways that they are already using THRASS. They are really looking forward to being able to do a SING-A-LONG concert in the future.

John Lees, Principal of the Preparatory School, is in no doubt at all that THRASS has increased reading and spelling ages, and that the comprehension of all the children using it has improved immensely.
