Speech Sounds for Kids - Aus 與 Boo Articulation Helper Lite 使用情況與統計

Speech Sound for Kids is an app for promoting phonemic awareness, auditory discrimination and speech sound production using a multi-sensory approach. This app can provide many hours of speech therapy and early literacy programming. It is recommended for children aged approximately 4 years – 7 years, however younger and older children may find it useful depending on their individual needs. The app helps children produce and explore the 22 consonant sounds of English using a multi-sensory approach. It also allows for the users’ results to be recorded and sent to their therapist or teacher. It’s perfect for home practice! Each of the sounds is represented by a friendly little character called a Sound Buddy. With the help of the Sound Buddies, children learn to identify, discriminate and produce each sound – and they start to learn letter-links too! The program has a strong emphasis on developing phonemic awareness and articulatory awareness too. Animated stories, videos of a child’s mouth saying the sound and Hand sound cues are all provided to help the child learn each sound. The child can record the sound or word and listen to how they went, and these recordings can be saved to monitor progress. Children can play games like colouring the Sound Buddy (Touch when you hear the sound), Who said that sound? Who said that word? and matching games of varying degrees of difficulty. In time, children become familiar with more and more Sound Buddies, thus increasing in their phonemic awareness (speech sound awareness) and understanding of correct speech sound production. Listening and production tasks are provided for both single sounds and also for each of the sounds in words. There are over 300 fun pictures to help with word practice! Several sounds can be combined in tasks after they have been “studied” individually, allowing children to develop a strong awareness of the similarities and differences between sounds. Phonemic awareness (speech sound awareness) has a causal relationship to reading and spelling development. When children become aware of individual sounds in words, they can begin to “map” them on to letters. Articulatory awareness is the knowledge of the articulation required for each sound. Studies show that individuals with dyslexia have weak articulatory awareness and training in this domain can increase performance on literacy tasks. The Goals of the App 1) To help children learn about and practise specific sounds required for clear speech. 2) To heighten children’s awareness of sounds (phonemic awareness) which is vital for speech therapy tasks and which is a strong predictor for success in literacy-learning 3) To heighten children’s articulatory awareness and auditory awareness of sounds (phonemes) which has been shown to assist children who have reading difficulties. Scope of the App There are five main parts to the app which work towards achieving the goals listed above. They are:- 1) learn to identify and make a specific sound (as represented by a Sound Buddy) 2) learn to identify and make specific sounds in the first position of words 3) learn to distinguish and produce different sounds (from the current set of sounds being studied) . 4) learn to distinguish and produce different sounds in the initial position of words (from the current set of sounds being studied) 5) build a bank of familiar sounds that can be identified and produced as single sounds and also in the initial position of words This is the Australian voice version. A US voice version is also available in the App Store.

TRY-BEFORE-YOU-BUY VERSION -- NO ADS, NO IN-APP-PURCHASES -- This is Boo! -- Boo helps children practice speech sounds that they need to improve. He is designed to entice spontaneous repetition of individual speech sounds and simple syllables. At the same time, he enforces helpful phonological awareness, by showing what actions happen in the mouth during articulation. The app is developed by a certified Speech-Language Pathologist. The children can use the app all by themselves or together with an adult. When the child simultaneously uses multiple senses (vision and hearing) to imitate and repeat it becomes easier to overcome obstacles and improve its articulation skills. -- Who is Boo for? -- The app is developed for children aged approximately 3 to 6 years old being in, or need to be in contact with a speech-language pathologist or therapist due to speech difficulties. It provides a motivating way to: • practice single speech sounds; • practice voiced versus voiceless consonants; • practice joining speech sounds together to create simple words; • practice the link between letters and speech sounds in early reading practice Boo may be a stepping stone to better pronunciation! Boo can also be a helpful pronouncing learning tool for those - young or old - who are currently learning the English language. -- Said about Boo: -- "They were extremely pleased with Boo and the boy is perceived by the parents as more intelligible than before. His training motivation as also improved." - David, Speech-Language Pathologist "It works really great! We are so pleasantly surprised by how encouraged the kids get to try the different sounds as soon as they see Boo." - Elin, Speech-Language Pathologist -- Try Before You Buy -- This is a tryout version with speech sounds P B EE AH and limited functionality. However, it should be enough to evaluate how the child interacts with Boo. For example, if the child spontaneously imitates Boo (try the repetition setting!) it may be worthwhile to purchase the paid version. There is also a minigame in which you can practice identifying different speech sounds as Boo makes them. The paid version contains consonants P B T D K G S Z SH CH F V M N L W as well as monophthong vowels EE AH OO AW ER EH UR and full functionality and tips from the SLP. --- Boo Articulation Helper is developed by a speech and language therapist/pathologist with therapeutic experience with developmental verbal dyspraxia or articulation/phonological impairments. The app is tested by eight children in their homes, aged 3-6 years, seeing a SLP on a regular basis. The try-outs have shown an improvement of training motivation and spontaneous repetition of speech sounds in a way that proved more difficult with other training material and methods (undocumented). The app is developed to be used on an iPad or tablet as it is easier to handle with little children's fingers - although it also compatible with smaller screens.
