Full Product Description
Published by Granada Learning in collaboration with Speechmark. Using a random selection of photographs, this stunning CD contains activities which reinforce key skill areas:
- visual discrimination
- problem solving
- concentration and attention
- semantics/categorisation.
Five activities offer three levels of audio and visual help, and concentrate on key areas:
- Match the picture - this interactive activity includes picture-to-picture matching, audio-to-picture matching, and part-to-whole matching.
- What's it for? - this engaging activity helps to build pupils' understanding of function.
- Odd one out - this activity involves grouping and classification.
- Add on - this thought-provoking activity helps pupils sort the cards into functional categories.
- How many? - this well-planned activity involves simple counting and search and count.
These activities cover a variety of skills, and are a valuable addition to speech and language therapy. They can be used to teach new skills, develop an emerging ability or to practise and consolidate new learning. Core skills important in language learning, or re-learning, include turn-taking, attending, listening, understanding, building up concepts and improving vocabulary.
