Here's what some of our users has to say: “I work with a range of ages, from Early Intervention through developmentally challenged students in high school. And I must say, it has become one of my ‘go to’ tools for many of the children in my practice. I highly recommend it.” - Cynthia James, M.A. CCC-SLP, Midland Park, NJ “I was able to pick up the app and instantly use it to drill my little girl on all three /k/ sets. SpeechBox worked beautifully and exactly as intended. She enjoyed the pictures and interface. It is the only speech therapy app I have found to be that useful with my daughter. Best speech therapy app I've laid hands on so far.” - Dala, M.A., CCC-SLP (Testy yet trying Blogger, Author) “Students with Apraxia require such repetitive practice in order to learn the motor movements for speech, making it very important to select words that kids will practically use throughout their day. SpeechBox has done just that. With beautiful pictures and a very thoughtful approach to selecting target words, SpeechBox is able to go beyond your typical articulation app in meeting the needs of children with diverse speech challenges.” - Katherine Kelley, M.A., CCC-SLP (Peachyspeech.com Blogger) ••SpeechBox for iOS was voted Best App Ever, Special Needs Category for 2012-2013, and Runner-up 2013-2014•• Questions?

Turn speech practice into a fun, engaging game! Created by a speech-language pathologist, Score 4 Articulation is the ultimate articulation app designed to make speech practice enjoyable and effective. This innovative app combines game-based learning with targeted speech sound practice to help children improve their articulation skills. Whether you're a speech-language pathologist seeking an effective therapy tool or a parent looking for a fun way for your child to practice speech sounds at home, Score 4 Articulation is the perfect solution. KEY FEATURES: Engaging Gameplay: Enjoy the classic challenge of connecting four in a row, now with a twist! Each turn begins with practicing a speech sound, making articulation practice an integral part of the game. Speech Mastery Through Play: During each turn, players can tap the word on the game piece to hear a pronunciation model before practicing it aloud. A visual counter tracks each repetition, encouraging the player to practice the word more frequently. This interactive approach motivates extensive practice, effectively refining the student's articulation skills. Targeted Sound Practice: Choose from a variety of game boards, each focusing on different sounds, including R (initial, vocalic, blends), S (initial, blends, final), L (initial, medial, blends), SH (initial, medial + final), CH (initial, final), J (initial, medial + final), and TH (voiceless). Target words have been meticulously selected by a speech-language pathologist, and a clear pronunciation model can be heard aloud by tapping on the image. Multiple Modes and Levels: Challenge the computer in single-player mode or play against a friend, SLP, or parent in two-player mode. Select from easy to difficult levels to suit the student’s skill level. If two students are practicing together in a group speech therapy session, they can each select a different target sound and play the game together, making group sessions more interactive and effective. Rewards and Motivation: Achieve four in a row to win and celebrate by coloring in three stars! Additionally, the visual counter rewards every 10 repetitions with stars or diamonds, motivating children to practice more and track their progress. These fun visual rewards encourage continued play and learning. Research-Based Effectiveness: Research suggests that massed practice, with many repetitions in a short period, enhances speech sound acquisition and motor learning (Maas et al., 2008; Bislick et al., 2012). This game leverages this principle to help children improve their speech more effectively. With Score 4 Articulation, speech practice is no longer a chore—it’s a game! Help your child or students master their speech sounds while having fun. Download now and start practicing!
