Speech Therapy for Apraxia-3 for Android

11 things about Speech Therapy for Apraxia-3

1. This newer version provides choices of different patterns of articulation within words and moves through a progression of levels that challenge motor planning for speech.

2. Developed by the National Association for Child Development team, including a certified speech-language pathologist, this app practices articulation at the word level and is a logical follow-up to the original syllable-based app, Speech Therapy for Apraxia.

3. Targeting specific patterns of articulation within 2-syllable words, this app is a fun way to practice basic speech sounds and motor planning.

4. Speech Therapy for Apraxia - 2 Syllable Words is intended to be the next step in a progression after the one-syllable words of our previous app, Speech Therapy for Apraxia – Words has been mastered.

5. It begins at the production of single words with easier patterns of articulation and progresses through increasingly more difficult production sequences all the way to the production of sequences of random words.

6. • Moves through a logical progression of 8 different levels for motor planning for speech.

7. • Detailed instructions explain how to choose an appropriate word group and practice level.

8. Because the emphasis is on the individual’s production, the parent or therapist should be an active participant, providing the user with feedback, reinforcement, and additional modeling.

9. • Track and save the progress for each user so that you can resume each consonant group and level from where you left off.

10. • For each group, choose the level at which to practice.

11. • Sharing your progress via email directly from the app allows for communication between therapist and parent.
