** Happy Frog Apps is a Mom’s Choice Award Winner! Also featured on FunEducationalApps.com, TeachersWithApps.com, and more! ** Conversation Planner teaches your child a step-by-step method to prepare for any conversation or social situation. Kids learn to think about who they are talking to, what that person will expect, when to know the person is ready for the conversation, etc. Conversation Planner gives your child the tools to complete successful conversations. What parents say about our awesome apps: *** 5 stars! Brilliant! An app that understands how kids actually learn. Thank you! *** 5 stars! This app totally engaged my 8 year old resistant reader! He keeps asking for it! I'll be checking out your other apps for sure! Conversation Planner provides: - A step-by-step introduction to all the key components of a conversation: how to start, how to finish, how to repair conversation problems, how to know your talking partner is ready, etc. - A focus on perspective-taking. Learners identify the conversation goals for themselves, their talking partners as well as the expectations of other people around them. - Students learn and practice their skills using more than 150 real-world, age-appropriate scenarios. - Students progress only when mastery of the current skill is demonstrated. - 'At a glance' reporting shows you instantly how your learner is progressing. - The fun Reward Center motivates even hesitant learners. Most exciting, this app offers independent mode AND therapist mode. In independent mode, answers are displayed and the learner taps the correct answer. In therapist mode, no answers are displayed. For each question, the student answers orally and the therapist taps whether the learner's oral answer was correct or incorrect. Both modes earn coins for the Reward Center.

Grid Spin

Grid • Spin-A-Win is a great way to introduce basic graphing concepts and coordinate pairs. The app presents a two-player game where the object is to place four tokens in a row using coordinates pairs. A player's turn consists of spinning two spinners to generate a coordinate pair. Once the coordinates are given the player needs to locate the position on the grid. Special sound effects make the app even more fun to use and the interactive design facilitates engaging learning strategies.
