Appreciated by children, Smart Directions is a specialized tool created for speech-language pathologists and resource (or special education) teachers who work with elementary-aged kids that experience difficulties understanding oral or written instructions.

What makes Smart Directions different:

– The ability to create customizable direction lists to suit any goal.

– The flexibility to use the app either in French or English.

– The option to print or email game boards and direction sheets.

– The independence for the child to play autonomously with built-in automatic scoring.

This ready-to-use app provides built-in direction sequences that progress in complexity.

Different types of directions are included in the app:

Short, simple directions using the same action word.
Short, simple directions using varied action words.
Long directions using the same action word.
Long directions using varied action words.
Short, inference-based directions.
Long, complex or inference-based directions.
Two-step directions with temporal or sequential elements.
Inference-based directions with temporal or sequential elements.

The eight game boards are paired with combinations of directions that increase in difficulty, allowing for comprehension goals to be worked on progressively.

A short reinforcement game pleasantly concludes each work session.

Additionally, an integrated editor allows custom direction lists to be created.
