Special Needs Applications - Key Features and Benefits

Cognitive:

Provides the information in a clear organized, consistent manner. This helps children learn the information in an organized manner that helps in retention and retrieval of that information at a later time. Enables children to use a simple style to learn in an age appropriate manner. Clues from color-coded cards (if using more than one set at time) assist children in achieving higher success rate and increased self esteem when sorting and/or classifying animals. Because each card only has one animal, the information presented to the children is easily learned so they can progress at their own pace.

Communicative:

Cards and their facts are unique and novel to most children and contain concise information providing teachers with topics to start verbal conversations. The “deck” of cards can help children learn how conversation flow works by taking turns picking a card and either reading or talking about that card.

Physical:

The double-sided cards are laminated for easy clean up. Cards are oversized and can easily be seen if they are placed on an easel stand in front of a child who cannot hold the card. The font used is large and clear and the space in between the short descriptions is ample.

Sensory:

The cards are visually oriented.
