I have another Smarty Ears review and giveaway for you guys this week…today we have Preposition Remix!
Preposition Remix is designed for single player use to help students master prepositions and following directions. From the main page of the app, you can access Support in the lower left corner. Here you get access to a few things…support, more apps, backup/restore, but most importantly the video tutorial and an About section (a written summary of the app).
In the bottom right corner of the main page, you can access the Settings. Here you can select the prepositions to target, choose reinforcement audio, turn on/off the written cues, randomization, and repeating questions. You can also choose how the app will respond when the student answers incorrectly: keep going, no response, or a buzzer.
Once you have chosen your settings, you are ready to get started. You can easily add a player using included avatars or your own photos. You can also import players from the Therapy Report Center. Choose your student and hit GO!
The app then shows a picture and reads a prompt. For example, this one says “Find the turtle behind the ball.” and you have to touch the correct picture. If you have repetition turned on, the student can press the play button in the upper left corner to hear the prompt again. If you have the written cues turned on, the text is displayed across the bottom.
If the student is correct, there is a mini celebration on the screen, then the app automatically continues. You can also go back to the previous picture or go to the next via the buttons at the bottom. Anytime during play, you can hit Done to exit.
The app collects great data with overall accuracy, plus details for each preposition targeted and whether or not the cues are on or off.
You can easily share this information by email, print, dropbox, etc.
Overall I liked Preposition Remix…Quick and to the point, my little guys loved it. Only thing I would change is to add a multiple students option since I work in groups most of the time. Keeps great data and I could certainly use for progress monitoring of students skills in this area.
Preposition Remix is available in iTunes for $9.99…BUT I have 2 copies to giveaway! You can win one by entering the Rafflecopter giveaway below! WOOT!
![Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) play a crucial role in children's language development. One often overlooked but highly beneficial area to incorporate into speech therapy sessions is print knowledge.

I love the realistic pictures and multiple choice! This would be a terrific new way to target prepositions with my preschool and early elementary students!
I would love to use this with my speech therapy students!
Having different materials for prepositions is so helpful because it is something I end up teaching a lot. Having a variety of go-to activities is very helpful, and this app would help out in that way.
Yes, this is great for preposition development, but I love the comprehension aspect.
What an adorable app!
I so love Smarty Ears apps, and love the data tracking features they have, so they are so useful with many groups. Wish I had all their apps!
I would love to use this app with my preschool students.
I would use this app in language therapy withy my students!
I can use this app with so many of my speech/language students as lots of them have goals for spatial concepts.
I love that the child can get a repetition of the prompt himself
I would love to use this app with my language groups at school!
This looks like a good app! Sometimes the apps have confusing depictions of prepositions, so that’s something I look out for.
I could use this app with our early development delayed students. They would really love the graphics and I would love the data.
Thanks
I love this app, I use it for following directions, and concepts. You can target certain concepts and it does the data for you!!!
Love it!
I would use this app for end-of-session practice and review!
I would love to use this with my language therapy groups.
I have so many students who would benefit from this app. It looks like a great progress monitoring tool with easy data collection!
I would use these for my elem kids working on prepositions. Looks like a great app.
This looks like such a fun app for kids!
Thanks so much for the great app review. This app looks like it would be beneficial for my clients with autism. The pictures are realistic and concrete!
It is always nice to have a variety of tools/materials to address goals in therapy. This would be nice to have to work on prepositions and following directions.
I would love to add this app as another approach to teaching/learning prepositions!!
I love all smarty ears apps. This app would be great to use with. My 3-6 year olds with developmental delays. Thank you
I would use this app with my primary elementary language students!
