Here are some other activities you can do with things you typically have around the house or in the classroom to strengthen auditory processing. Students improve when you work directly with them: in addition to their skills improving, their auditory processing improving, their self-esteem also improves dramatically. But, again, I would NOT use computer programs exclusively because students gain so many more benefits from one-on-one and small group work. They are both sound programs and do help with auditory processing difficulties. Earobics and Fast Forward are the two that I’m most familiar with. There are a variety of good programs out there. The increase in self-esteem that a student gets from this interaction with you while working on their skills is priceless.Ĭomputer programs enhance the progress. I don’t use computerized programs exclusively because I strongly believe that students need the one-on-one feedback and modeling from peers, siblings, parents, and teachers.
Making Spelling Sense is where we work on auditory discrimination, auditory closure, and auditory memory.Ĭomputer work adds to the hands-on work we have already done. For example, The Comprehension Zone is a game where we play for both auditory memory, auditory comprehension, and reading comprehension. We work on a variety of auditory processing areas every time we do activities from the Reading Pack: Five Minutes to Better Reading Skills, Making Spelling Sense, Ten Minutes to Better Writing and Study Skills, and The Comprehension Zone.
I’ve compiled a variety that you can choose from whether you are tutoring a student, homeschooling, or a concerned parent tutoring your own child.Īuditory processing is a critical component of reading success. Many of you have asked about additional auditory processing activities to do with your kids or students that have auditory processing difficulties due to CAPD, ADHD, dyslexia, a learning disability, a learning difficulty or autism.
