From theimums.com: "I think the developer has done a great job with this app – it is engaging, simple to use, is very adjustable allowing it to be used by students with a range of abilities, and has the ability to track settings and data from multiple students. All this for $9.99 – a real bargain!! Highly recommended!" “She is eating an apple under the tree.” What does that sentence really mean? What would it look like? Picture the Sentence is an exciting app designed to practice language and auditory processing tasks at the basic sentence level. This app offers three different levels of difficulty so the child can learn how to attend to important elements of a sentence and “picture it,” attaching meaning to the words and eventually forming mental pictures without visual support. It is also an excellent choice for anyone who is trying to learn and understand the English language. **Turn the voice commands off and the text feature on, and this game can also be a great way to practice basic reading comprehension skills too! We have incorporated a cute “Pick-a-Door” game, which can be selected at varying intervals so the user can take a break and have a little fun. The user opens each door until an animal comes out and says, "You found me!" Now also included "Pop a Bubble" reward game! Options in the Settings Include: • Choice of color drawing icons or stick figures • Levels include: Easy (slow, with visual support staying on the screen) Intermediate (faster rate with pauses, with visual support flashing briefly on the screen) and Advanced (no pausing or visual support) • Text on/Text off • Choice of subjects: Pronouns (He/she/they) or nouns (boy/girl/children) • Sandtimer (This delays the presentation of the picture choices so there is a greater challenge to the child’s working memory.) It is enabled in the "default" mode but can be easily turned off • Sentence Types: Subject + verb, subject + verb + object, subject + verb + prepositional phrase, subject + verb + object + prepositional phrase *Progress/Data tracker that allows you to collect and save data, email it or print it *Select the number of choices Hamaguchi Apps is dedicated to the mission of bringing high-quality apps to the general public and professionals for affordable prices. *Please contact our tech support if you are experiencing any technical issues with our apps.

GoWorksheet PLUS takes printed classroom worksheets and tests and makes them accessible with an iPad! Quickly turn printed worksheets and tests into work all your students can use. Bring in an image or take a photo of the worksheet, and customize it for your student's needs. Customization includes added word banks, allowance of tapping to fill multiple choice answers, drag and drop answers, virtual manipulative for counting exercises, line matching, or audio output that includes more detailed instructions or additional prompting. Two versions of the GoWorksheet app are available. GoWorksheet PLUS is for adding accessibility alternatives to a worksheet so all students can complete the same work. GoWorksheet is for filling out customized worksheets. Capturing text with OCR (optical character recognition) is a useful tool for creating an enhanced worksheet. Text that is to be read aloud can either be keyed in or added with the built-in OCR that identifies text on the screen. Word banks are another useful tool. For questions with short answers, the keyboard pops up when tapped. Instead of typing the answer, a student may select the answer from a teacher-created word bank. Use the AAC toolbar for quick access to messages. Once a GoWorksheet is created, multiple ways are available for the teacher to share it with the student, and for the student to return the completed worksheet. Sharing options include AirDrop, email, any cloud storage set up on the iPad (such as Google Drive or Dropbox), print, or save to Photos.
