Tiger's Tale
Appropriate for Language Development Stages
6 & 7. Correlated to State Standards.
This engaging program stimulates language production by encouraging
students to "talk" for a Tiger who has lost his voice. Children
"talk" for Tiger and their voices are recorded to create a movie.
When they're finished, they can watch their movies and hear
themselves speaking for Tiger. Also bundled with TalkTime with
Tucker.
Engaging Conversations
During Tiger's search, a variety of animated characters
appear and ask children questions to elicit their
thoughts, suggestions, and opinions. Conversations are
developed using your child's voice along with other
pre-recorded voices.

Training Opportunities
Tiger's Tale is an ideal springboard for accomplishing a variety of
therapeutic goals. A clinician can model a response for the child,
ask the child to imitate it, decide whether the recording should be
saved or not, and finally playback the child's utterance. This gives
children the opportunity to use and practice a variety of language
structures and functions in a motivating, yet non-threatening
environment.
Non-verbal alternative
If a child is asked a question and does not record an answer, there
is the option to click on one of the characters and the scene will
continue. This allows a child who initially refuses to speak to
interact with the program and gradually increase the number of
replies he or she records for Tiger.
A Rewarding Experience
In the final scene of Tiger's Tale, students click on
various objects to find Tiger's voice. Afterwards, they
can watch the movie and hear their own voices speaking
for Tiger. These "home" movies, which can be saved for
future viewing, are not only entertaining, but also
enable students to measure their progress over time.
