Important Information!
Computer Users
If you are using these on a computer, you will need to open them in the desktop version of PowerPoint (2016 or newer). We can NOT guarantee these will work in the browser-based web app version of PowerPoint on a computer.
iPad Users
If you are using these on an iPad you will need to open them in the free iPad app version of PowerPoint. No paid 365 subscription is needed for these games when played on an iPad. *
* If you want to add your own targets you need to edit the game on your computer, even if you intend to use it on an iPad afterward. For editing, you need the paid version of PowerPoint, not the read-only version! HOWEVER, even without the editing capabilities, you can still play this game and as-is this is a comprehensive articulation, and open-ended, game.
Teletherapy Use
To play these games in teletherapy you need to open the game on your computer and then share your screen within your teletherapy platform. Then IF your platform allows it you can share mouse controls so the student can interact with the game. This step is NOT essential, you can still use these in a fun engaging way without giving mouse controls, you can just interact with the game for the student. This game is set up to work great without giving mouse controls, the student names the intersection which means they are practicing their speech words while also having their turn! Then the therapist then clicks the tile at the intersection the child named.
