This app is for students who are learning to comment in Phase VI of PECS. iHear PECS: Animals
includes two different sound tracks for 12 familiar animals, a PECS Activity Board, 3 Pics for PECS
Sentence Starter images and 12 Pics for PECS animal images. Parents can customize the Activity
Board with 1 to 3 Sentence Starters and 1 to 12 animal images to teach responsive and spontaneous
commenting and requesting. The student drags and drops Pics for PECS icons to the Sentence
Strip to comment on or request the animal sound and then taps each picture to “speak” the
sentence. If the student requests an animal sound, the animal sound plays as a reward.
