Are you working with children
who have a core vocabulary of nouns and verbs but are having difficulty
conveying meaning? This program helps children understand the importance of
Subject-Verb-Object word order. 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.
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.
