Created by Erik X. Raj, M.S., CCC-SLP, Game Show Articulation is a unique speech therapy game that turns students into game show contestants and challenges them to answer super fun trivia questions for a chance to win cool prizes. Game Show Articulation features a comprehensive collection of over 600 sound-specific articulation words and questions designed for speech-language pathologists to use with individuals who exhibit difficulty producing the following speech sounds: S, Z, R, L, S/R/L Blends, SH, CH, and TH. This thrilling trivia game is intended to aid in the remediation of articulation impairments, as well as language and auditory memory difficulties because clients often need practice in more than one area of communication. This fast-paced and exciting speech therapy game features: -Tons of questions: with just a tap of a finger, children and clinicians can try to solve over 600 sound specific articulation questions that are perfect for the speech therapy setting. -A wonderful review screen: after each round, enjoy viewing and reviewing the articulation word to help strengthen pronunciation. -Hilarious prizes: after each round, tap on the prize icon to hear what silly prize you won! -Child-friendly interface: simple and intuitive, a wonderful experience from start to finish. Information: In Game Show Articulation, students test their knowledge to see if they know the answer to random trivia questions. Featuring an extensive list of child-friendly trivia questions where each answer is an articulation word, this speech therapy game gives all players a massive amount of opportunities to practice proper pronunciation. Each round consists of one question and three possible answers. If the student gets the question correct, a celebration is in order because that student has just won a fantastic prize! Traditional speech therapy that focuses on improving articulation abilities can usually get stale and boring, but through Game Show Articulation, speech therapy can easily become an enjoyable competition that strengthens students’ thinking brains and talking mouths. It is the hope of this speech-language pathologist that by encouraging students to participate in this game show-centered experience, they will be able to practice their pronunciation in a way that can lead to fabulous gains toward mastering their speech therapy goals and objectives. The structure of Game Show Articulation is a departure from traditional articulation drill work and is effective for students ages 6 and up. With this trivia game, clients have a blast challenging their friends and classmates outside of the speech therapy room, further practicing their articulation skills and thereby facilitating the sometimes difficult stage of carrying over newly-acquired skills. By playing Game Show Articulation with the client, paraprofessionals in the classroom and/or parents at home can reinforce the client’s skills while sharing a wonderful activity. Practicing communication skills in environments outside the speech therapy setting increases opportunities for generalization of communication skills. So, are you ready to be a big winner? Do you have what it takes to become a trivia AND articulation champion? I invite you to use Game Show Articulation to spice up your speech therapy sessions. Regardless of when, where, or how this game is used within the speech therapy session, one thing is certain, children (as well as clinicians) will have a delightful time giving this game a try . . . and in the process, your students will continue to practice the correct pronunciation of their sounds at the word level.

Whether you're an SLP looking for a powerful speech therapy tool or a parent supporting speech at home, Score 4 Articulation is a game-changer. 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: Players can tap on each word to hear a clear pronunciation model. A visual counter tracks repetitions to encourage frequent practice and build speech accuracy. 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. Two players can even choose different sound targets, making it ideal for mixed speech groups. Rewards and Motivation: Win a game and color in three stars. Every 10 repetitions also earns stars or diamonds, helping kids stay engaged and motivated to practice more. Research-Based: 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. Score 4 Articulation turns speech therapy practice into a game kids will love. Download now to help your child or students make meaningful progress through play.
