Next Generation Systems was incorporated in August 2013 with the sole purpose of bringing WordParts to market. An idea was formed, a team was created, and that team has been working with a single-mindedness to accomplish our goal – that of bringing a new way of learning English language structure to every school-age child in the United States.
Each team member has a history of success; each is committed to this effort; each has a passion for education and children. Each member also brings a special skill and experience to the project. It’s all about people.
WordParts evolved from an early history of using manipulatives to teach Grammar in the early 90’s. An analysis ensued, a team/entity was formed and WordParts became a reality.
While the early vision has changed significantly, the importance of using 3D shapes to represent parts of speech and creating the “magic” of kinesthetic learning means WordParts becomes a strong value proposition for parents and teachers.
By adding a world-class curriculum to our software and manipulatives we have created a solid “I do, You do, We do” teaching toolkit for teachers and students.
