Speech With Milo

An application I stumbled upon while reviewing a Technology Review, is the application called "Speech With Milo".  It can be used for general education students, but it's mostly used for special education students through speech therapy. The creator is a licensed pathologist. While researching this topic, she presents videos on YouTube on why she created the application and how it can be used.  
She sees the access of iPads and iPhones will help the students advancement in their language development. 

This application can be accessed through any mobile device. The intended target of age is 2-10. Milo, an interactive mouse allows the kids to learn the topic through the adventures of Milo and his friends. For example, he'll go on a walk through the woods. He will then walk or run through the woods. The students have to then choose the action. Speech with Milo has verbs, nouns, prepositions, adjectives, feelings, numbers, and an interactive storybook. In result of this application, the students can see language development as well as gaining knowledge of the topic. 

The cost is only $2.99 for each application. It doesn't seem much, but it can add up, especially with how many applications "Speech With Milo" provides. If a school provides the educational budget, I would recommend using this application in the special education classrooms. Not only is it cost effective, but it's simple for all the students to use. It's only tapping on the mobile device.
