The interactive format creates a challenging yet fun atmosphere to review common and differing elements. Watch out for tricky questions as all items have something in common and one word that does not belong with the other items. Teachers, parents, tutors, and therapists can have fun reasoning with the kids as to why a certain item does not belong listed or grouped with the others.
This app was created and written by a certified Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) with many years of hands on experience in a variety of settings, with both typically developing and special needs children.
