Great way to work on sentence building in speech therapy! – SentenceBuilder™ for iPad Review

I use this app in my speech therapy practice. It is most appropriate for kids- but adults with aphasia also find it helpful. The colorful pictures are very engaging. Many individuals need work on written sentence formulation, but can't write or legibility is a big problem. This app is a wonderful way to get around those issues and focus on grammar and the connector words. I often expand on the app and encourage the kids or adults I am helping to say the final selection aloud and perhaps then generate another sentence or two to describe the picture or answer a question. It all depends on the therapy goals. If we are working on typing or handwriting sometimes I have them try to write the sentence again from memory. What a great value for only $3.99. The kids I have used this app with love it and often then willingly practice learning the new skills on their own:) I also appreciate the fact that the developer of this app is very responsive to my suggestions for ways that this app can be improved.
