Online games (vaguely educational) for older kids/young adults with moderate to severe LD?

[moondog]

Anyone have an bright ideas or suggestions? please
For obvious reasons, don't want to be guiding people to CBeebies.

Thank you.

No ideas but would love to know too.

Think DS goes on CBeebies at school but he spends most of the time at home trying to switch the computer on and off. He also looks at YouTube videos of rock bands - it's just about tapping into what he is interested in and it may encourage mouse skills if nothing else

CoolMath-Games.com has a variety of games, for all ages. Some are quite tricky, others are a lot easier. All are math based in some way, often involving using logic, or adding/subtracting. It is a collection of games you may have seen elsewhere on the net. They do usually involve Mouse Control.

Grey lltwit has a collection of games with an ADD/ADHD slant to some of them. Link goes to the Freeware games so you get a feel for what sort of thing there are. Many other games available via subscription (sometimes there is a special offer, click the link to see if there is one today). Most of the games run as standalone applications so require download. Typically most games will have download options for PC and MAC.

Take a look, then do post to say if that is the kind of thing you are looking for, or if you are needing something different?

There's this lovely French website which DD2 is crazy about (you can click the flag to get English language if needed) I don't know if it's any good to you, but take a look anyway.
It is very user-friendly.

Update to my earlier post... MAC users will need to be have an Intel based MAC and use some software called Crossover. So, sorry got it wrong... while the Grey Olltwit games will often work on a MAC, you do need to make your MAC act like MS Windows.

we like this school site as its fun and easy.

If you should need Switch Enabled games, then there are some at HelpKidzLearn though they do look like they are aimed far more at young children.

Agree with Sazisi about poisson rouge, it is excellent

tHANKS SO MUCH, THIS IS GREAT. (Oops)Knew about but had sort of forgotten about Poisson Rouge and Priory Woods.
Just the ticket, as are the rest.
