Earobics Step 1 is designed for developmental ages 4-7 and features six interactive games with over 300 levels of play. It systematically teaches the critical phonological awareness, auditory processing and introductory phonics skills required for learning to read and spell. The games also develop general cognitive skills that support learning, such as attention and memory.
Students save the clown's balloons by
remembering the order of sounds they hear.The balloons don't pop if the student correctly recalls a series of one to four sound effects, words, digits or speech sounds presented against three levels of background circus crowd noise.
Primary skills: auditory attention, auditory short-term memory, sequential memory, auditory performance with competing signals.
Students load the C.C. Coal Car with coal
by identifying long vowels, short vowels and consonant sounds. They
identify sounds heard in isolation, in the context of a word and by
identifying the position of a sound within a word.Primary skills: phoneme discrimination and identification, phonological sequencing, sound-symbol correspondence.
Students keep the beat by breaking words
into sounds. They click once for each drumbeat or speech sound they hear,
then for each syllable in a word, then for each phoneme in a word.Primary skills: phonological segmentation, auditory short-term memory, temporal resolution.
Students are delighted when they
successfully blend sounds into words and Katy-Pillar transforms into a
beautiful butterfly. Students begin by blending words into compound words,
then syllables into words, then phonemes into words.Primary skills: phonological blending, auditory attention, auditory short-term memory, sequential memory.
Students visit Bog Frog and friends to
identify which frog says the rhyming or non-rhyming word. As they
progress, students must choose from two to five frogs speaking against
increasing levels of background swamp noise.Primary skills: rhyming, auditory attention, sequential memory, auditory performance with competing signals, auditory short-term memory.
Students help Farmer Fardell collect eggs
by discriminating between different sounds. Real speech and acoustically
modified, computer-generated speech are used to develop discrimination of
vowels and consonants.Primary skills: auditory and phoneme discrimination, auditory attention, auditory short-term memory, sequential memory, pattern recognition, temporal ordering.
