SoundLiteracy App - Phonological Awareness and Processing

Sound Literacy is an instructional tool and resource for teaching phonemic awareness, phonological processing, the alphabetic principle, and morphemic awareness. It is the first in a unique line of apps that will encourage teachers and students to work together in an intensive work study program.

 

With an abundance of 'sound knowledge', SoundLiteracy provides a platform for teaching students to hear, see, and analyze words in ways they have never thought of before.Unlike individualized computer software instruction, SoundLiteracy is intended to facilitate interaction between a teacher and student(s).

 

An instructor is needed to demonstrate concepts and skills as well as guide practice sessions with student(s). SoundLiteracy can be used in conjunction with any curriculum that emphasizes phonemic awareness, phonological processing, and systematic phonetic instruction.
