Scally's World of Verbs introduces Scally, a little
alien who is learning English quickly, because he's stranded in orbit
around our planet. Scally gets in touch with two children down on Earth.
By copying their actions on his interactive television, he learns about
verbs.
In Scally’s World of Verbs, the engaging alien Scally will ‘do’ just about anything a child could possibly want – so long as he or she can click on, type, or copy a verb.
The challenge is to discover which verbs (past and
present tense) Scally 'knows'. Children can do this in five different
ways:
 |
Watch & Say - Scally 'does' a verb,
children discuss what they saw
|
Click & Watch - Click a verb for Scally
to 'do'
|
Watch & Click - Scally acts-out a verb,
then children click on the word
|
Watch &Write - Type the verb they saw
|
Write & Watch - Think of a verb - can
Scally do it? |
| | | |
| Watch & Say - Scally 'does' a verb,
children discuss what they saw |
 |
|
Stunning graphics and real speech motivate children to interact with Scally

'Options' adapt the software for specific
students/groups.

Scally's World of Verbs can be tailored for individuals
or groups, and it's easy to save those settings. The words Scally knows
can be controlled, and you can save word files for future use. When
children are ready, you can challenge them to make a sequence, in which
verbs will be automatically separated by commas, with a full stop at the
end to give a sentence like 'Scally can run, jump, fly and yell.'
Mayer-Johnson's © Picture Communication Symbols can be displayed
alongside the written verbs.
With over 100 amusing animations covering 400-plus verbs
(including synonyms), Scally's World of Verbs is a must-have,
no-mistakes way to develop listening, vocabulary, word recognition,
spelling, sentence building, sequencing, modelling, and I.C.T skills. It
can also generate a wide range of cross-curricular work, e.g. in Art,
Creative Writing and Drama. From England.
