Teach Me Nouns
Series
More on
Teach Me Nouns See individual units below Teach Me Nouns is for students with articulation, sound production and speech production goals. The series has over 700 vocabulary words organized by target sound. Using the SoftTouch morphing activity, these programs help students make the connection between a photograph, line drawing, symbol and text for each word. These Steps to Learning Programs give you the ability to select specific words for each student. Music, movement, morphing and narration engage and motivate the students to select the words at their own pace and as often as they wish. Using the powerful changeable format, you can place the target words in different locations to ensure the students are making purposeful choices. you can also increase or decrease the number presented at one time to simplify or make the task more complex. As students choose the words over and over, they learn to hear the sound and often increase their ability to say the words. (Previous version was called Teach Me Phonemics.) Win/Mac CD-ROMs |
