The Electric Company is back and it’s better than ever…I just found out that WHRO will be airing the Electric Company at 5:00pm weekdays. The show is perfect for 2nd grade and struggling third grade readers. Far from the classic that I watched when I was a kid, the updated show has all the bells and whistles that attract the current generation. I ran across an interview that the new producer did and she explained some of the changes…http://www.pbs.org/engage/live-chats/01-21-2009/karen-fowler .
In addition, the show has a really cute website that helps students to practice some basic second grade word study skills. I would add this site to those that students use in the computer center: http://pbskids.org/electriccompany/
