Are you looking for programs that encourage expressive language? These programs gives children with language impairments the opportunity to communicate. The Talking Series is designed to build expressive language and augmentative communication skills.

Press a word, phrase, or picture on the monitor screen to make your computer speak. Corresponding pictures appear on the monitor screen.

Children and adults with language-learning disabilities, developmental disabilities, physical impairments, and autism.
Candidates for augmentative communication systems.

Benefits:

Four activities build communication skills:

Interactive Communication -This activity offers two options:
- Single Touch Activation -The computer says each word as it is selected
- Sequenced Activation -The computer speaks only after a phrase or sentence has been completed.
In both cases, the computer adds articles and verb inflections so that your child only hears grammatically correct phrases.
Picture Matching -A picture appears on the monitor and the user is asked to find one that matches it.
Picture Identification -The computer asks the user to find a word and he or she must select the correct picture.
Nouns by Category -Five nouns from the same category appear on the screen and the user is asked to find them. (Not available on Talking Verbs.)

With this program, the user selects words, phrases and pictures to make the computer speak. Talking Nouns I uses 50 early developing nouns to help your student learn to form sentences.
