I am replying to Andrea, but am asking questions in order to be
more specifically helpful
e.g. What computer is available?
Primary, secondary level of learning?
Chronological age?
I can then suggest a couple of software packages and relevant
BDA Computer booklets/leaflets.
Screen readers are excellent access tools but they do not *teach*
literacy skills.
