Sentence Maker

What is Sentence Maker?

Sentence Maker is a simple yet effective app that has easy-to-understand user interface and allows students to add their own words to it and record themselves speaking it loud. There is a comprehensive settings screen that allows teachers to customize the app to the student's level of understanding. It is a good sentence builder app which helps the kids to elevate the understanding of sentence structure.

What's it about?

This app allows children to work on building sentences. The app is fully customizable and easy to customize. The child matches written words and pictures to words in sentences at bottom of the screen. The parent, teacher or therapist can customize with unique word lists and sentence length from 2 words to 5 word sentences. You can also customize the app with your own voice. By making customized word lists and recording custom audio, this app could be used for children speaking languages other than English. The pictures included are photographs of real objects and are high quality, sharp photos. You can also add your own pictures.

The app reads the word when it is selected providing auditory feedback and vocabulary/reading practice. This app is easy for readers. We have children build the sentence and then repeat the sentences. This app is good for children who use primarily single words or very short phrases as an activity to encourage sentence length. This app could be used to practice spelling words or reading sight words. We have used this app with children between the developmental ages of 3 and 8 with diagnoses of autism, speech delay and Treacher Collins Syndrome. It is very easy for the older kids who are good readers. We also used it for sentence building and reinforcement for using multi-word utterances.

You can download Sentence Maker on your iOS devices from the Apple App Store.
