Despite the positive impact of reading success on the school and academic achievement, some children need support in learning how to read and write. Children with developmental disability (mental deficiency, hearing loss, visual disability etc.), children with reading disability, children who use a language or a dialect at home which different from the one that is spoken in the school, children who have a home environment that lacks of readingwriting activities, and children with oral language disorder, are under the risk of reading-writing failure 19. It is
indicated that, the removal of this risk depends both on the teachers using the methods that would increase the students’ reading and writing success, and on receiving technological support. For instance; the teachers participating in Baydik and Kudret’s study 5, expressed that there were many CD-ROMs available that could be used in hand-writing and first reading teaching, that they used these a lot, and that they did not face many problems in hand-writing teaching. It is indicated that; alongside the CDs that the teachers needed in teaching (for instance:
hand-writing teaching CDs), the interactive storybooks in CD-ROM formats, particularly support the early literacy development. It is expressed that; CD-ROMs improve the self-reliance of children, especially who have specific requirements, by making their active participation possible, and they also contribute to children’s reading and writing success by increasing their writing motivations. Moreover, it is a well-known fact that, children do develop
their social skills as they have the opportunity to use the storybooks with their friends 17.
