During the 2026 ATIA Conference, Kyle Odierno from Crick Software showed us Clicker which is a literacy tool and child-friendly word processor designed to support primary-level learners, particularly those with dyslexia, special education needs, or English as a second language (EAL).

Does Clicker integrate with other classroom platforms (like Google Classroom or Cool Games tablets), and how customizable is it for different learning levels or specific needs like dyslexia vs. EAL?
Hi Dylan – yes Clicker can be used with Google Classroom, and it’s very customizable – you can change the font style, colour and size, use high-contrast colour combinations, add picture support, change the speed of the speech feedback and the level of word prediction, and provide different levels of scaffolding (from guided order sentence building to speech-supported word banks and writing frames) depending on where a child is on their literacy journey. It’s also switch and eye gaze accessible. There are also on-demand webinars on the Crick Software website specifically focussed on how the software can be used to support dyslexic and EAL learners.
A young player who faces early setbacks but ultimately blossoms is a model of perseverance and potential.

Clicker is an excellent literacy support tool for primary school students, particularly useful for children with dyslexia and those learning a foreign language.
Clicker is a great literacy assistance tool for primary school pupils and is especially helpful for children with dyslexia or those who are studying a foreign language.
Thanks for highlighting Clicker during the ATIA Conference. It’s encouraging to see literacy tools designed specifically for young learners with dyslexia and EAL needs. I’d be curious how teachers balance word prediction with allowing students to make and learn from spelling mistakes, especially in early writing development. The picture support and speech feedback seem like great scaffolds.
you answered all the questions I had in mind before I even finished reading.
Interesting overview of Clicker and how it supports primary learners with dyslexia and EAL needs.
The child-friendly word processor angle makes it sound very practical for classroom writing support.
