GAME TWO: Auditory Memory (Listen and Remember)

Auditory memory is the ability to recall auditory information both immediately and after a delay which is an extremely important aspect of spoken language development. Auditory memory growth enables children to speak in longer and more complex grammatical sentences. 

The Object: is for the child to listen and recall two, three, and four-word sets.

Game Three:  Auditory Association  (What goes together? What doesn’t belong?)

Auditory Association is the process of attaching meaning to something heard by relating it to previously learned information.

The Object: What Goes Together?

• Have the child listen, repeat the words and explain how they go together or are associated. Next, find and mark the correct pictures on the board.

The Object: What Doesn’t Belong?

• Have the child listen, repeat the words using their auditory memory then tell what doesn’t belong and why. Next, find and mark the correct pictures on the board.

Game Four:  Descriptions - Critical Elements  (Listen and Describe)

Descriptive language adds information that makes the language more colorful and appealing.

The Object: is for the child to listen and identify a picture based on descriptions and critical elements.

This activity builds vocabulary and descriptive language skills.

Game Five:  Categories - Critical Thinking  (Can you find it?)

Categories are a group or class of items with shared characteristics. The ability to use categories builds vocabulary and logical thinking skills. It includes auditory reception, memory, and comprehension.

The Object: is for the child to listen to the category then identify the picture(s).
