Attention Getter
by SoftTouch
Get the attention of your students with this morphing program to assist with language and vocabulary
In this program students learn to interact with the computer. This engaging program uses music and movement to get the student’s attention. Each image changes or morphs in front of the student’s eyes. Each image grouping is related, showing a conceptual link between the images such as a king to a lion king.
Paired with interesting sounds and music, the photo animations are so engaging that the student is motivated to activate the computer to see and hear the next one. Students laugh and exclaim with delight with each new image. This is a perfect vehicle to achieve goals aimed at attention getting, activating a switch or intentionality. Also excellent for opening the door to language and vocabulary concepts.
