Whether you are a speech language pathologist or a parent you will find the Category Carousel app a fun way to increase and enhance a childs vocabulary. The ability to categorize and subcategorize words and concepts is a skill necessary to build, store, and retrieve words leading to better comprehension and expressive language skills.
Choose a category (or multiple categories) and let children touch the pictures, hear the word, and then sort them by dragging them into various categories. Once pictures have been dragged into a category users can touch the category and watch it split into sub-categories, encouraging the child to think about words in multiple ways. Audio reinforcement and correction are included in this fun and educational app.
Categories and subcategories found within:
• Animals (birds, bugs, farm, water, jungle, forest)
• Transportation (land, water, sky)
• Clothing (body, head, feet)
• Food (breakfast, deserts, drinks, meat, fruit, vegetables)
• Household (cleaning, furniture, toys, tools, bathroom, kitchen)
• Instruments
• Occupations
• Summer
• Winter
