SpeakApp-for what..? 1.63

SpeakApp 2 is the second installment in the SpeakApp series, designed to enhance syntactical skills in young learners. Catering to a diverse age range and various developmental stages, this game offers adjustable difficulty levels suitable for children aged 2.5 to 6 years.

This version focuses on teaching the purpose clause through engaging questions like “For what purpose...?”. The game encourages cognitive flexibility while providing an interactive learning environment.

Gameplay Overview:

• Matching Game: Consisting of three screens, this game displays five pictures on each screen with an empty frame next to each. Players must drag a centrally displayed picture to match it with the corresponding image, creating pairs that together form purpose sentences (e.g., “In order to…”). Successful matches trigger a brief on-screen sentence and narration available in one of six languages. Settings allow for subtitles and narration to be toggled off.
• Memory Game: Featuring 20 cards that consist of 10 pairs, each pair creates a logical sentence. Players aim to uncover all matching pairs, with successful matches briefly displaying the corresponding sentence along with narration.
• Recording Game: In this game, card pairs are arranged in a circle. Selecting a pair reveals the associated sentence while narration plays. Players can record themselves repeating the sentence using a microphone feature, with the option to listen back to their recordings. This encourages repeated practice and active participation in language learning.
