Al-Qari mixes Arabic with sounds, graphics and animation to help students read the language of the Quran interactively with the computer. Al-Qari teaches Arabic reading from basic alphabets to Quranic recitation, and the essentials of tajweed. The sound heard through Al-Qari is the actual voice of a Qari, not computer synthesized sound.
Al-Qari is available for the PC or Macintosh. And comes with a well written manual which can be used as a self study guide. It also has a chapter for parents and teachers.

"Our children have grown up with The Learning Company. From Toddler Reader Rabbit to Clue Finders and more. And now I see they even have a Reader Rabbit for Babies! (that's right, something for children who are not yet toddlers!)"
"Reader Rabbit's learning adventures run from babyhood to 2nd grade. After that "The Clue Finders" take over with adventures from grades 3 - 5".
"They have even teamed with Creative Wonders to bring us "Learning Buddies" with well known characters as Little Bear, Arthur, Madeline and more. Currently my 4 year old loves playing marbles with Little Bear. What he doesn't know is that he's playing and learning to match".

Sylvan Learning Systems Skills Tests
Grades 1-3, 4-6 and 7-9
"I use this every so often to tell me where my children's stregths are and where we need
to spend a little more time. It's easy and engaging enough that my children play the
games even when they are not taking the tests. The report the parent recieves is very much like
the Iowa Basic Skills standardized tests. The difference is that the report is available on the
computer right after your child takes the test. These standardized tests will not replaced the tests some states require
home schoolers to take. They will however, let you know how your child is doing months ahead of time".
