WordbarWordbar is a writing tool that sits alongside your word processor, giving you almost instant access to words & phrases. It consists of a grid of cells, each of which holds a word or phrase which can be sent to the word processor by clicking on it.

Word banks allow a customised bank of words & phrases to be readily inserted at the touch of a button. This has a variety of benefits for different learners.

Dyslexic learners benefit from the inherent good spelling in the word bank. Simply clicking a word to add it to an assignment reduces the time & stress involved in typing, allowing more time & effort to be directed to the thinking skills.

By having the word bank on-screen all the time, there is constant reinforcement of key words & phrases. Learners with short term memory & concentration problems can benefit from this reinforcement.

Learners with limited fine motor skills can type more quickly if the word bank contains many of the words they need. Whole phrases can be added to the wordbank, providing supportive writing frameworks which can benefit a wide range of learners with or without disabilities.
