Galaxy Goal

The student helps the soccer player kick goals on the outer-space soccer pitch. This exercise improves identification and discrimination of syllables that differ by an individual phoneme, increasing a student’s phonological fluency and listening accuracy.

Lunar Tunes

Students persuade the space musician to drop from the ceiling of the auditorium and play for the audience by matching spoken words in increasingly complex grids of speakers. This exercise improves the student’s ability to recognise spoken words by using auditory and visual-spatial working memory to locate matching syllables.

Stellar Stories

Students follow spoken directions and also listen to descriptions of activities and events displayed in pictures on their screens. They then select the picture that correctly illustrates the description. This exercise improves skills in listening comprehension, English language conventions, and following directions through a combination of increasingly complex activities.

Space Racer

The rider on the space cycle moves faster and faster as the student correctly identifies the correct sequence of multiple sound sweeps. This exercise improves the speed at which the student identifies and understands rapid, successive changes in sound (listening accuracy), and improves the student’s ability to hold sounds in memory.

Spin Master
As the space DJ spins the discs on the turntable, students attempt to identify identical sounds. This phonological fluency exercise increases in difficulty across three dimensions: synthetic speech emphasis, presentation rate, and phoneme discrimination.
