The TOOBALOO is a phone-like device that allows children to hear themselves clearly while speaking softly into it. The design of the TOOBALOO magnifies their voice allowing them to hear their sounds and words distinctly. Students are able to listen more clearly to their reading rate, phrasing and expression sound, duration, pitch and stress. The TOOBALOO helps students build confidence in reading and comprehension. Students need to practice oral reading at a level of effortlessness for fluency and comprehension, and the TOOBALOO provides motivation to read and reread their stories. The TOOBALOO gives students opportunities to read aloud daily and helps improve self-esteem for all levels of readers. The TOOBALOO can be used by speech pathologists to help clients with fluency disorders, monitor and regulate their speech. It provides auditory feedback to help the clients detect their errors in articulation. The TOOBALOO can help to regulate vocal intensity and self monitor their fluency and motivates students to use correct productions and good vocal qualities. Details:BlueLightweight and portable
