Musical Leaps and Bounds
Grades Kindergarten-1, Inclusion
Best Software for Kids, 2004, Museum of Science Boston

In My Band, listen to a mixture of timbre, dynamics, and texture using instruments ranging from a guitar to tubular bells. Sequence singing characters however you like to compose new tunes and choreograph dance routines in Let's Dance. The concept of pitch is introduced in Up and Down with a series of amusing monsters. The taller the monster, the higher the sound he makes! Kids move characters closer or further away to make corresponding sounds get quieter or louder as they experiment with dynamics in Mixing Desk. Create scary, serene, angry, happy, and other songs in Moody Jukebox, where the influence of musical textures and dynamics on mood is demonstrated. The Singing Blobs are fun characters that each play a unique note when clicked, and a sustained note when the button is held down.

Smart Alex
Special Education, Win/Mac (separate CDs)

There are 8 different levels to choose from, making this an easy program to adapt to the needs of various students. At the first level, students click on Alex's mouth and eyes to change his facial expressions. Higher levels allow students to choose emotions and tell Alex to express them by selecting from Mayer-Johnson and Rebus Symbols. Alex can express emotions such as fear, anger, happiness, confusion, boredom, shyness, curiosity, courage, and frustration.

Students can even conduct a simple conversation with Smart Alex, sharing likes and dislikes and teaching him new words. At higher levels, if you give Smart Alex a word, he'll ask about it and remember it the next time you type it in.

It can be used with a mouse, touch screen, or keyboard. Smart Alex can be male or female, black or white. Use the sound recorder to make Alex talk using your own voice!
