Micro-LADS
Appropriate for Language Development Stages
5-7. Correlated to State Standards.
Based on years of clinical experience and extensive research,
Micro-LADS provides exactly the kind of instruction that children
with language-learning disabilities need to acquire the grammatical
forms of English. 7 modules use over 600 pictures to train
comprehension of 46 fundamental grammatical structures.
Link to Program Theory & Program
Suggestions.
Simple, Effective Training
First, the computer introduces the grammatical form being
trained. Then 2 or 3 pictures appear on the screen and the
user is asked to choose the right one. If the correct picture is
chosen, an animated character performs amusing antics.
Independent language learning
Because Micro-LADS is designed to be used independently,
children can benefit from language instruction in their own homes 5
days a week. They will not only meet their language goals more
quickly, they'll become self-directed language learners and build
their self-esteem.
