【實用教育app】See and Learn Playing with Sounds|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

See and Learn Playing with Sounds is designed to help young children with Down syndrome listen to and learn speech sounds, identify the differences between sounds and to produce individual speech sounds.See and Learn Playing with Sounds supports activities that encourage attention, listening, discrimination and production of the sounds that make up speech. See and Learn Playing with Sounds introduces 41 speech sounds (phonemes) in the English language with clear picture card prompts. Later steps in See and Learn Speech build on these skills to combine individual sounds in simple vowel consonant combinations and then whole words. See and Learn Playing with Sounds can help parents, teachers and therapists support regular speech practice. Research suggests that practice and repetition are necessary to develop clearer speech.The app is part of See and Learn Speech - an evidence-based teaching program developed by Down Syndrome Education International and Down Syndrome Education USA – widely recognized leaders in research and effective interventions for children with Down syndrome.See and Learn Playing with Sounds includes four activities:• Listening to Single Sounds - this activity is designed to help children become familiar with the sounds in their language and to store these sounds in their memory system. It also teaches your child to associate each sound with a picture prompt.• Listening to Different Sounds - this activity is designed to help children hear and notice the differences between sounds (discrimination). This skill is important for speech and language development: children need to able to hear the differences between sounds to learn the meanings of similar sounding words (for example, fat, cat, sat) and to produce similar sounding words.• Selecting Different Sounds - this activity tests your child's discrimination skills by asking them to identify a spoken sound by choosing the sound card representing the sound.• Saying Sounds - as your child learns the sounds in speech and learns to discriminate between them they are developing some of the skills necessary to begin to produce sounds spontaneously - this activity helps them to practice producing speech sounds.The app also includes a detailed guide and printable forms for record keeping.See and Learn Playing with Sounds is designed for use with babies from around six months of age and preschool children. You can use the app with children of any age above six months to practice listening, discrimination and the production of sounds. Some older children will be listening to, discriminating and producing many sounds spontaneously, but may still be unable to produce some individual speech sounds. You can use the See and Learn Playing with Sounds cards to help these children learn to say these specific sounds.See and Learn Playing with Sounds is one of series of steps in the See and Learn Speech program.
