This engaging program
stimulates language production by encouraging students to "talk" for a
Tiger who has lost his voice. Preschool and elementary students alike will
delight in recording their voices to create their very own movies. Tiger has lost his voice and needs help looking for it.
Children "talk" for Tiger and their voices are recorded to create a
movie. When they're finished, they can watch their movies and hear themselves
speaking for Tiger.

Engaging
Conversations
During Tiger's search, a variety of animated characters appear and ask children
questions to elicit their thoughts, suggestions, and opinions. Conversations are
developed using your child's voice along with other pre-recorded voices.
Training Opportunities
Tiger's Tale is an ideal springboard for accomplishing a variety of therapeutic
goals. A clinician can model a response for the child, ask the child to imitate
it, decide whether the recording should be saved or not, and finally playback
the child's utterance. This gives children the opportunity to use and practice a
variety of language structures and functions in a motivating, yet
non-threatening environment.
Non-verbal alternative
If a child is asked a question and does not record an answer, there is the
option to click on one of the characters and the scene will continue. This
allows a child who initially refuses to speak to interact with the program and
gradually increase the number of replies he or she records for Tiger.
A
Rewarding Experience
In the final scene of Tiger's Tale, students click on various objects to find
Tiger's voice. Afterwards, they can watch the movie and hear their own voices
speaking for Tiger. These "home" movies, which can be saved for future viewing,
are not only entertaining, but also enable students to measure their progress
over time.
