Developing Tray is a powerful aid to developing reading strategies. The
process of predicting the text from the
limited clues available calls upon the skills essential to a good reader. If used in a
group, the discussion provoked broadens
the language experience to include
listening and talking as well as reading
and writing.
By simply changing the text Developing Tray can be adapted to support a wide range of reading activities. The Developing Tray Editor provides a quick and easy way for teachers to input their own texts, anything from a nursery rhyme to a Shakespeare sonnet, and customise it to suit their particular students needs.
