LanguageLinks™: Syntax Assessment and Intervention

Do you want your students to master syntax and become better communicators? LanguageLinks is an all-new, comprehensive, evidence-based approach to syntax assessment and intervention. In a recent study, LanguageLinks was proven to be a highly effective way to help children acquire language.

Product Description:
LanguageLinks is a new, comprehensive, easy-to-use software series designed to help children with language impairments become better communicators. LanguageLinks takes children from the early two-word development stage through the mastery of a broad range of syntactic forms. Six levels train over 75 essential grammatical forms in developmental order.

Optimized Intervention® Ensures Success!
LanguageLinks features Optimized Intervention, a powerful, innovative system that tailors instructional delivery to each student’s unique needs. The software begins with an assessment to determine where to start training. Then the program tracks detailed information about a student’s performance and automatically guides the student through the curriculum.

Reinforcement animations are not only entertaining, but also include enriched language which has been shown to facilitate language development. At the end of each lesson, you’ll be able to quickly review your students’ performance and print comprehensive reports to ensure accountability.

Independent Language Learning
LanguageLinks is designed to be used independently, so students can benefit from language instruction in their own classrooms five days a week. Your students will not only meet their language goals more quickly, they will become self-directed language learners and better communicators.
