Edpax – Materials for Primary Language Teachers

iEdpax – Materials for Primary Language Teachers
This company supplies, amongst other things, software for the interactive whiteboard. They have materials for primary languages on over 28 topics which consist of over 650 activities. These are stand alone products, so they can be used on their own or with another course. They come with full instructions so are useful to both specialist and non-specialist teachers. There are also printable follow up sheets and planning grids for teachers, for French, Spanish, German and English.
The pictures provided for the whiteboards are cheerful and colourful, which is appropriate for the primary classroom, though the actual drawing is a little crude. The interactivity is superb. All of the printed material is very clear and the instructions for the teachers are also logical and will empower the teacher to apply good practice.
Of course, a resource like this is not cheap: at the time of writing it costs £189.00 for Disk 1 or 2, £350 for both disks together and £24.00 for the student work book. However, in terms of saving the teacher preparation time and providing a quality experience to the students, this is a bargain, especially compared with how much an interactive course including books would cost.
