Articulation Arcade Lite 1.5

Articulation Arcade Lite offers an effective approach to achieving articulation goals in speech therapy. It serves as a helpful resource for children experiencing speech sound delays, disorders, and apraxia, enhancing their skills in sound production and clarity of speech.

• This app provides a playful yet educational speech therapy tool, allowing children to engage with articulation games as they learn to pronounce sounds correctly.
• Utilizing this application can lead to improved speech clarity and intelligibility.
• Customization is key, enabling therapists and caregivers to select specific speech sounds for each child, appropriate to their developmental level (word, phrase, or sentence).

How Does Articulation Arcade Lite Work?

1. Select an articulation game or the Flashcards activity.
2. Opt for the desired sound, such as the B sound.
3. Decide on the position of the sound within words (initial, medial, or final).

The application features five articulation games alongside a Flashcards activity. During gameplay, children encounter pop-up flashcards displaying images and are encouraged to articulate target words either singularly or repetitively. The platform also allows for practice at both phrase and sentence levels. Each spoken production can be evaluated as correct, approximately correct, or incorrect.

• Matching: An engaging game where players seek matching pairs.
• Bingo: Listen for the target word and stamp the corresponding bingo card.
• Spin the Wheel: Spin to reveal pictures and words.
• Scratchcards: Uncover hidden flashcards by scratching off portions of the card.

A separate Flashcards activity allows for additional practice at word, phrase, and sentence levels.
