You can make this app part of a process by having your student write a short paragraph script (with a focus on your language objectives such as main idea/details, listing, sequencing or categorizing, or microstructure aspects such as complex sentences or pronouns), or treat it as an intervention context for students who don't do so well on CELF-5's Formulated Sentences. Chatterpix Kids gives us an opportunity to make therapy educationally relevant as well by having students describe curriculum-relevant people or objects.
Here, I am readying Boston's mayor Marty Walsh to talk about our terrible winter (note the mouth):

I love Chatterpix and so do my students! I have had my student pick a topic or theme and then the student used Chatterpix to make a series of talking photos. We then used iMovie to put their videos together in one movie. One student gave a tutorial on Story Grammar Marker by making each of the magnets talk.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea on iMovie- maybe I should do a post on this. BRILLIANT idea on SGM! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteChatterpix Kids is a creative tool that enhances language learning by combining images and audio. It engages students in writing scripts focused on language objectives, making therapy both fun and educationally relevant. Ideal for practicing skills like sequencing, pronouns, and descriptive language.
