Language Development using Picture Vocabulary
Children with autism have difficulties in communication, stemming from difficulties with generalization and language acquisition. Avaz is unique because it doesn't just facilitate communication through speech -- it encourages children to acquire reusable words and have real conversations.
Avaz has 3 graded, research-based vocabulary sets, with over 2,500 core and peripheral words, organized into intuitive categories. Avaz has a unique system of surrounding words with 'conversation starters', so that they can be used in sentences quickly and effortlessly. By building and speaking sentences with Avaz, children can communicate their thoughts, and also learn to generalize the usage of words, accelerating language development.
