Editorial Review: Product Description: A good all-round educational CD-Rom The CD-Rom covers basics of literacy, numeracy and science in a bright and colourful way. Children really enjoy the challenges of over 350 activities and will come back for more. Win 95/98 Amazon.co.uk Review: Learning Ladder Year 3 is another excellent product from Dorling Kindersley. This CD-ROM is packed with a good range of activities tailored to support the Year 3 school curriculum. Children can navigate their way around the playroom, looking for fun activities. These include the printing machine, which they can use to create their own labels, invitations and cards. Children can then improve their literacy, numeracy and science skills by undertaking a wide range of activities that help to consolidate Year 3 work. Children can, for example, choose correct word endings, solve addition and subtraction problems, label skeletons and identify correct habitats for animals. These are just a few of the carefully thought out and clearly explained activities here. Children should be able to use this program independently. They are rewarded with stickers for each activity they complete correctly and will enjoy collecting these and putting them in their own sticker album. Learning Ladder Year 3 would be an excellent buy for any Year 3 child. It consolidates the learning that is taking place at school and develops children's competence on the computer. --Amanda York Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Very useful softwareI found this software very useful and it kept my son engrossed for a long time, he loves the sticker rewards for each task completed. My only grip is that there are no instructions, although we quickly worked out how what to do once we clicked around a few times. Rating:  - It's getting old nowI was very dissapointed with this release. It's now 6 years old, but there was no mention of the release date, so it came as a surprise to me to see ancient graphics and ideas and an annoying Timmy Mallet sounding "guide". There must be better software out there now for Keystage development Rating:  - Perfect distractionFinally, something educational that distracted my son from his xbox. He sat for 2 hours using this software and was totally engrossed. He loved the sticker rewards, just like so many sticker books stacked on his bedroom shelf. He came away with a great sense of achievment. Apart from being a fun way to learn, it is a postive experience and is helping my son's confidence. I'm off to buy Year 4 Rating: - Fantastic fun while learning.I bought this software to help give my dyslexic 7 year old a little confidence during the summer holidays. Not only has she enjoyed it but my other, younger kids also enjoyed playing with it, as have several of the neighbours kids. They all think its fun and not like learning at all (?) Rating: - Another Great Title From the DK StableThis is a great way to get reluctant scholars to apply themselves to Maths and English. There are also modules on telling the time, nature and geography. The work modules are first class and are of the high standard that we have come to expect from Dorling Kindersley. However there are a couple of negatives that stop me from awarding this five stars: firstly the interface is cumbersome - on completion of a task for the first time, children are rewarded with a sticker for their digital sticker ...
