Advanced Comprehension Therapy will help you find where comprehension breaks down, then help you build it back up with 3 classic speech therapy activities targeting sentence-level listening and reading comprehension.

1) IDENTIFY the picture that matches the sentence, increasing in syntactic complexity. Start by finding the picture that matches a sentence like “The baby sleeps.” Work up to finding “The grandparent is told a secret by the child” from closely related pictures.

* 11 levels of difficulty for understanding sentences with nearly 700 unique trials
* Listen, Read, & Both modes to focus on auditory, reading, or total comprehension
* Includes up to 3 nouns, indirect objects, reversible sentences, & passives

2) BUILD a sentence by focusing on each word & how they all fit together. Arrange the words one-by-one to match the pictured sentence you hear. Start with 3 words and work up to 9.

* 20 sentence types in nearly 1200 unique trials
* Add up to 3 extra words for an added challenge
* Tricky "little words" like articles, pronouns, and prepositions
* Hear each word as you touch it

3) FOLLOW directions of increasing difficulty in 1-, 2-, & 3-step commands. Start with exercises like “Touch the pencil.” Work up to brain-bending challenges like “Before you touch the large yellow striped circle, touch the small blue solid star.”

* 16 levels of difficulty for following directions
* Listen, Read, & Both modes to focus on auditory, reading, or total comprehension
