Welcome to Matchpix Matchpix makes remote therapy, site-based therapy, and screenings interactive and collaborative. The therapist and every child see each other on live video and play the same materials at the same time, in the same environment — so a session works the same whether everyone is in one room or spread across a district. Built around the sounds you are working on Choose a target sound, then choose the position — beginning, middle, or end of the word. Every activity draws from that selection, so practice stays on goal instead of on whatever the deck happened to contain. Eight ways to practice the same sound • Match Game — flip cards, find pairs, say the word • Drill Cards — one target sound at a time, at your pace • Fluency Challenges — word to conversation, said your smoothest way • Race to the Finish — say the word, move your penguin, reach the flag • Treasure Hunt — say the word, dig a spot, uncover the treasure • Hidden Picture — say the word, lift a tile, reveal the surprise • Sequencing Stories — put the cards in order and tell the story • Spin the Wheel — give it a spin and say whatever it lands on The therapist switches between activities inside the same session, without anyone rejoining or losing their place. Made for how therapists actually work • Up to six children in a session, with turns handled for you • Schedule sessions ahead or start one on the spot • Children join with a short code — no account needed for them • Deck size and word list are yours to set before you start • Schools and districts can invite therapists and manage their own rosters For families Parents can set up profiles for their children and practise between sessions.
