How to Buy DISTAR Software

DISTAR is an acronym that stands for Direct Instruction System for Teaching Arithmetic and Reading. The software is utilized mostly for disadvantaged and at-risk students. DISTAR helps students live with learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, and helps foreign children ease into the English language. The program is extremely structured and is used at all grade levels up to the last year of high school.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Read all you can about DISTAR online and in the library. Your school administrator and child's teacher will also be able to guide you in your quest for information.
2. Learn about the methodology of DISTAR and find out if your child's school uses the software in the curriculum.
3. Search for a vendor that sells DISTAR software. You may get a better discount if you can purchase the system software through your child's school.
4. Test your child's commitment to the DISTAR methodology. If your child is not committed, the hundreds of dollars you may spend will just be lost.
5. Examine your current computer's capabilities if you have one. If you have an older computer, you may need to upgrade your operating system.
6. Decide where you can purchase DISTAR software the cheapest and buy it. Make sure you get all instructional manuals with the product.
7. Lean on the knowledge of your child's teachers so that what you do with DISTAR corresponds to your child's school lessons.

Tips & Warnings

• You may want to buy a printer if you do not have one—sometimes printing out assignments breaks up the monotony of sitting in front of a computer.
• Do not let anyone discourage you from helping your child learn how to read better.
