Trial 1
Multisensory Phonetic Encoding
Talk School | MAY 2025: Word-Level Comprehension & Retention

SCENARIO: Speech therapists and an individual student work within their regular 1:1 therapy session. Testing scenarios ensure that the Reed app is complimenting and augmenting each therapists established therapy plan and each student’s business-as-usual progress plan.
FOCUS: Reed is introduced in place of conventional analog tools when students are learning letter-sound combinations or net-new vocabulary. Students will engage Reed in real-time reveal of standard letters to Association Method encoding.
GOALS: Talk Therapists will assess the efficacy of these sensory-rich learning interactions in student engagement, comprehension, retention, and progress toward their IEP objectives.
