Can Do! Science Game Show: Solar System
© 2013 Lakeshore Learning Materials
This software, for Mac or Windows on CD-ROM, lets children compete as contestants on a mad scientist's game show, and is designed to help them learn about the solar system. The animated show features "level appropriate" questions in three categories, including: planets and moons; asteroids, comets, and meteors; and the sun. Teams take turns spinning the wheel to choose a category and then answer a question to win points for their team. Each correct answer unleashes a surprise on the competition, for example, a zap by the Super Shrinker or a visit from the Slime Monster. Other features include a personalized score report, printable pre- and post-assessment to track student's skils, and 100 skill-building questions. Prices are $14.99 for a Single License CD-ROM or Single License Instant Download for use on one computer, $39.99 for a Class License CD-ROM for use on up to five computers, and $149 for a Site License CD-ROM for use on all onsite computers.
