This comprehensive app is designed to continue where Writing Therapy left off. The four levels are as follows: 1-Match (Hear the sound the letter or letters make or the name of the letter and press the letters from a choice of 4. Letters are presented in groups of consonants, vowels and blends) 2- Spell (type the word you hear-contains the 300 most common words In English. Words can be set for 2-7+ letter words). 3-Type (typing to dictation one to 8 word functional sentences that can be used in emails, chats, & text messages.) 4-Write (Practice writing your own sentences- and listen to what you’ve typed to proofread). Each level has individual supports to help guide the learning and options to control difficulty, cues, letter style and more. You can also record yourself, email results, and set number of trials. This is a thorough and motivating app for use both in language therapy or as a tool for home practice.
