Score 4 Articulation Description
Turn speech practice into a fun and engaging game with Score 4 Articulation! Created by a speech-language pathologist, this innovative tool is perfect for achieving multiple trials of speech sounds, helping to improve speech skills. Whether you're a speech-language pathologist seeking an effective therapy tool or a parent looking for a fun way for your child to practice speech sounds at home, Score 4 Articulation is the perfect solution.
KEY FEATURES:
Engaging Gameplay: Enjoy the classic challenge of connecting four in a row, now with a twist! Each turn begins with practicing a speech sound, making articulation practice an integral part of the game.
Speech Mastery Through Play: During each turn, players can tap the word on the game piece to hear a pronunciation model before practicing it aloud. A visual counter tracks each repetition, encouraging the player to practice the word more frequently. This interactive approach motivates extensive practice, effectively refining the student's articulation skills.
Targeted Sound Practice: Choose from a variety of game boards, each focusing on different sounds including R (initial, vocalic, blends), S (initial, blends, final), L (initial, medial, blends), SH (initial, medial + final), CH (initial, final), J (initial, medial + final), and TH (voiceless). Target words have been meticulously selected by a speech-language pathologist, and a clear pronunciation model can be heard aloud by tapping on the image.
Multiple Modes and Levels: Challenge the computer in single-player mode or play against a friend, SLP, or parent in two-player mode. Select from easy to difficult levels to suit the student’s skill. If two students are practicing together in a group speech therapy session, they can each select a different target sound and play the game together, making group sessions more interactive and effective.
Rewards and Motivation: Achieve four in a row to win and celebrate by coloring in three stars! Additionally, the visual counter rewards every 10 repetitions with a star or diamond, motivating children to practice more and track their progress. These fun visual rewards encourage continued play and learning.
Research-Based Effectiveness: Research suggests that massed practice, with many repetitions in a short period, enhances speech sound acquisition and motor learning (Maas et al., 2008; Bislick et al., 2012). This game leverages this principle to help children improve their speech more effectively.
With Score 4 Articulation, speech practice is no longer a chore—it’s a game! Help your child or students master their speech sounds while having fun. Download now and start practicing!
