Mersibo Software: Fun Phonemics
Good phonemic awareness is the key to clear speech and competent writing. "Entertaining phonemics" is a set of 23 games on a flash drive that will help develop speech hearing and sound-letter analysis. The flash drive will be needed by speech therapists, defectologists and teachers of speech therapy groups. The games vary in complexity and are suitable for children aged 4 to 9 years with normal development and disabilities. Games have settings for adaptation to the child’s individual capabilities: simplifying or complicating a task, focusing on something. The tasks of the games are varied: match a sound and a letter, find the first sound in a word, repeat a word based on a picture or from memory, find a mistake in words, choose a picture according to the diagram of a word, and other tasks. The tasks are played out with an interesting plot. For example, you need to not just remember a syllable, but lead a young man out of a labyrinth or talk to an alien. This approach will help to interest the child and increase the effectiveness of classes. Each game has a printable activity. It will help you move from an interactive game to a board game and consolidate your skill. In addition to educational and correctional games, the flash drive contains a block of interactive lessons for examining the sound side of speech, recommendations for conducting the examination, and a dynamics map for monitoring results. During the examination, the child sees static pictures and completes tasks based on them. For example, you need to determine the general sound in the pictures and choose the one that does not have this sound. There are three exercises on the flash drive: for sound-letter analysis, phonemic attention, and choosing the right word from a pair of similar-sounding words. Each exercise contains several sets of pictures.
