The fourth and final app in the Advanced Language Therapy series! Advanced Writing Therapy is designed to pick up where Writing Therapy left off by delving deeper into phoneme-grapheme correspondence to strengthen writing skills. Next,​ you apply those skills to write common words and sentences to dictation, and then you can practice generating your own content. Take your writing skills to the next level! **Try this app for free with Advanced Language Therapy Lite! ** **Get this app as part of the Advanced Language Therapy 4-in-1 value-priced app!** Four activities with built-in therapeutic supports to encourage independent practice for people with aphasia and other writing disorders. 1) Match: Strengthen sound-letter matching by selecting the letters (graphemes) that match the sounds (phonemes) you hear.
