“It is powerful to see the enthusiasm of students working with Waterford.”

— Carol Young, Principal

Waterford Early Learning can be used for individualized and whole-group instruction in the following ways:

Student Rotation Teachers with computers in their classroom can launch Waterford Early Learning at the beginning of the day and allow the software to automatically rotate through students throughout the day.

School-wide Access Students can access Waterford Early Learning from any computer within the school’s network, whether in the language lab or in the classroom. Waterford Early Learning’s simple picture menu login makes it easy for very young students to access the program independently.

Front-of-classroom Instruction Teachers with an LCD projector or interactive whiteboard can easily integrate Waterford Early Learning’s songs, books, and activities into their whole group instruction.
