Just type or paste in some text, choose the words you want to remove, and you're ready to go! When your students run the activity on the computer, a comprehensive report is produced so that you can track individual progress. Or you can print out a worksheet for the whole class!

It's easy to make different versions of the activity to fit the different ability levels in your class. You can remove whole words, phrases, parts of words or individual letters. You can use pictures and speech to support younger or struggling readers. You can even create multiple-choice tasks for older learners.

Anyone who has used Clicker will find the interface very familiar. Grids are created automatically and are supported by digital speech. It's easy to create a series of linked activities that students can work through at their own pace.

The grid can be displayed along the side, as a pop-up, or in the bottom part of the screen. Gaps can be shown in a variety of styles, including the option to show the shape of the words. You can even have pictures in the gaps. Gaps can be filled in any order, so that students can make the best possible use of context cues.

Students can work through a series of linked activities that can form the basis for a whole lesson. ClozePro tracks everything the student does, and you can access a full report for any student at any time, either on a stand-alone computer or across your network. This enables you to diagnose reading problems and track individual progress.

ClozePro is also great with small groups, and is very powerful with the whole class when used with a whiteboard. It offers a rich language development opportunity where students can discuss possible answers and argue their case.
