Many children with language impairments have persistent problems with word order processing and production. This pioneering language intervention program helps them learn the importance of Subject-Verb-Object word order in sentences.

Here's how it works…
Using Optimized Intervention® technology, Simple Sentence Structure begins with an assessment test to determine where to begin training. Then the program automatically guides the student through the appropriate curriculum.

During training, the student is presented with two pictures and asked to identify one of the them (e.g. “Find...’The boy is splashing the girl.”) The program monitors each student response and then adjusts the training level accordingly. New instructional reinforcement animations prepare students for the Reversibles set.

At the end of each lesson, a summary of the student’s performance is presented, allowing you to quickly review your student’s progress and ensure accountability.

Find out what is included in a Sterling Edition™ of Laureate Learning Systems® Software.



Four contrasting sentence sets
Each sentence set contains 20 sentences. In each set, students are shown two pictures and they must choose the one that represents a given sentence. Here are some sample sentences from each set.

Contrasting Verbs
The mother is holding the baby.
The mother is washing the baby.

Contrasting Objects
The girl is riding her horse.
The girl is riding her bike.

Contrasting Subjects
The boy is washing the monster.
The monkey is washing the monster.

Subject/Object Reversal
The bear is riding the lion.
The lion is riding the bear.


Who will benefit from Simple Sentence Structure?
Children with Down syndrome who make errors in the processing and production of sentences in correct Subject-Verb-Object word order.

Children with autism will benefit from the direct instruction to establish correct word order processing and production.

Children with specific language impairments who are already speaking in short sentences, but make errors in comprehending and producing Subject-Verb-Object word order.

Children with significant language delays who are in the late one-word stage of development. At this point, they have a core vocabulary of over 100 words but have not yet begun to combine words. Simple Sentence Structure can help these children move into the two-word stage without encountering word order difficulties.
