## What is Prepositions Journey?

****I liked everything about this app! My students were engaged with the activities, and it targets all of the prepositions that I need an app to target! I really like that you can target the prepositions either expressively or receptively. The pictures that are used in the expressive activity are clear, and my students enjoyed creating sentences to describe the pictures.(Speech Universe)****

The Prepositions Journey app was developed by a certified speech and language pathologist to aid practice with early/common prepositions. Children will have fun practicing prepositions with three animals who appear in three different colorful, animated scenes: camping, island, and city.

The Prepositions Journey app includes:

•Receptive tasks: Children identify animals in different locations on the scene, for example, “Show me the bunny in the basket.”

•Expressive tasks: Children verbally respond to “where” questions, for example, “Where is the bunny?”

Prepositions covered by this app include: 

In, on , under, next to,  in front of, behind, in the back, between, above, below, beside, in the middle, outside, out, over, near, far, on the side, on the left, on the right

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2018-01-11*

This app was buggy from the start. When we tried to use the record function it closed the app. Technical support was no help. They told me to try to fix the microphone using a fix for iOS 7 ( I have iOS 11)When that didn’t work and I told them, they stopped communicating.  As far as the activity goes, if more than one student is using the app and are working on the same concepts, it uses the same concept with a different picture for everyone making it difficult to know if they know the preposition or are copying from another student. I have a few apps from Visual Speech Center and have been pleased with them. After this I doubt I will buy anymore.

### 4/5 — Kids love it

*2015-09-27*

The pictures could be clearer to determine location.  The kids enjoy looking at the different picture scenes.  Easy to switch between receptive and expressive versions.  Provides me with another tool to teach prepositions/spatial concepts.  Data is easily interpreted after session.

### 5/5 — slp

*2014-06-03*

This is a fun app! Its great for preselecting the skills particular students are working on. The children love getting to select the island, or city etc. A great app for all pediatric therapists.

### 4/5 — Preposition Journey

*2014-06-02*

Another great app from Virtual Speech Center! I love that this app has both expressive and receptive elements to it. I also like that I can select from 20 prepositions, and use with multiple students at the same time. Having three different scenes to choose from adds to the variety, which keeps this app engaging for our students. I also like that I can email myself reports by date or by activity. This app is a great therapy tool.

### 3/5 — It’s okay

*2014-05-28*

I am an SLP who works in a clinical setting as well as in the schools.  My students enjoy this app but I believe it needs more customization.  It is too repetitious for some of my students.  It needs the capacity to be customized with the number of trials for each preposition receptively and expressively.  Also, some of the pictures are unclear, even to me.

### 5/5 — Engaging

*2014-05-27*

This app provides a fun way for students to practice prepositions. The fun characters and scenes provide both receptive and expressive tasks. The therapist can select specific prepositions to focus on. Data tracking can be done within the app and the target can be repeated as many times as necessary. I love using this app with my students who are just learning prepositions.

### 4/5 — Good but

*2013-10-07*

Some of the cartoons are hard to decipher. The animal between the lamps was confusing even for me. I love the data collecting and ability to add multiple students. 

I use a lot of Smarty Ears apps, but they are expensive. This app is every bit as thorough, maybe even more so, and was affordable.
