4 Must Have Educational Apps For Special Needs Kids

We have compiled a list of apps for dyslexic learners, apps for autistic learners, apps for the visually impaired and apps for learners with writing difficulties.
We found this visual and thought it would be perfect for teachers to use for students with a special needs student.

1) Dyslexia Quest
In this app, the strategy is to climb the mountain and play the yeti games. Each game will test memory and learning skills. The Yeti Master will explain signs of dyslexia.
“My 9 year old son loves this app” says one app user.
2) Autism iHelp
Autism iHelp is a vocabulary teaching aid developed by parents of a child with Autism and a speech-language pathologist. Autism iHelp was inspired by the need for specific language intervention tools for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder focusing on their unique strengths and difficulty with expressive vocabulary.
3) Dragon Dictation
Dragon Dictation is an easy-to-use voice recognition application powered by Dragon® NaturallySpeaking® that allows you to easily speak and instantly see your text or email messages. In fact, it’s up to five (5) times faster than typing on the keyboard.

4) iWrite Words
