oes the student match the word to the picture?
At the simplest level, the student matches identical pictures while the word is displayed under the picture. Upon successful matching, the program “says” the name of the picture out loud. At the next level (receptive labels), the student is asked to recognize a picture among several on the screen with the verbal request “touch…” At the next (3rd) level (verbal imitation) the student is asked to echo the labeling of the picture. For example “Say bicycle” with the picture of the bicycle showing on the screen and the caption “bicycle” underneath. At the fourth level (spelling) the student is asked to spell the word (letter by letter). The next level (sight-reading) does not display the picture anymore, but only the written caption, although the picture can be flashed on the screen as a prompt or hint. The program moves discretely from picture only (matching and receptive label) to word only (sight-reading) moving to a given level only when the previous one has been mastered for any give
