Super app!

Yet again another app that engages my students in a motivating and fun way. It provides multiple ways to use the target items within each category to increase vocabulary knowledge. The technicality of the application is awesome. You are able to choose among categories and combine categories together in formats like a sorting, find it, which does not, belong?, memory match, and flashcards. There are no bugs so it makes the app easy to use, just like the articulation bundle they have in the App Store. This makes everything 100% more enjoyable as technological difficulties during this time can add lots of extra stress in our day to days… something I experienced with other speech apps (i.e., they tend to close out/ freeze on me during the day).
How I use the 28 Categories App: I begin with the flash cards to introduce categories. We go through each item and describe (i.e., Category-Function-Attributes). I then combine 2 categories at first (and increase as we progress) within games to assess my student’s knowledge. Easy planning and the students continue asking to play!
It would be awesome if we were able to add our own categories and submit them for others to download, but regardless this was a STEAL of saving my time wisely. Most importantly, it has been a great way to increase categorical knowledge as it provides clear-cut ways for students to organize a schema in the multiple opportunities practicing the vocabulary taught.

Hi! If you pay for the app, ALL of the 28 categories are unlocked. Trying confirming your purchase with Apple. Please let us know how this works out!

Fantastic app for preschoolers!

If you’re using an iPhone and having difficulty upgrading to the premium version, try turning off dark mode in settings. When I was unable to upgrade, the developers took less than 24 hours to respond and come up with a solution.
My family will be relying on these apps for years to come, as we work on speech development for our special needs daughter who has Kabuki Syndrome.
