===Activity Speak===
====Activity Summary====
Speak with the activity, the XO back the sound of letters, words, sentences, texts and
the figures and numbers typed on the keyboard.
Learners will use the Speak to become familiar with the pronunciation
words, to teach numbers and letters, especially in first grade
Primary Gabon, and to learn self correcting accents.
This could facilitate the recognition of visual and hearing students in
learning vowels, consonants and numbers. It would thus gain
time in education.
====Affordances of the activity====
* Speak returns the sounds of letters, words, sentences, texts as well as
figures and numbers typed on the keyboard.
* The student can control the language and appearance of the icon (eyes and mouth).
* It can also control the speed in the pronunciation and the volume of the computer.
====Degree of centrality of the activity====
Speak is a core activity easily integrated into the curricula of primary
Gabon in the first year. Indeed, this is where we learn to decipher
letters, syllables words, figures and numbers.
====Application pédagogique 1====
====''Decoding of syllables and learning to read in first year''====
''Level (s)'': 1st year of primary
''Knowledge'': The letters, syllables.
''Savoirfaire'':
The reading of letters and syllables
''History'':
The teacher targets a consonant (m), written on the blackboard and asked the
students to recognize, to tap the XO and support the Enter button. The computer
returns a sound. The teacher asks students to repeat and read it.
Secondly, it targets a vowel (a), the writing on the blackboard and asks students to the
recognize on the keyboard, tap it on the XO and press Enter. The computer
returns a sound that will be repeated and read by students. Third, the teacher
asks students to type the consonant and vowel on the XO and press Enter. The
the machine returns the sound of the syllable. For example, m + a = ma. Students will be able to
easily recognize and decipher a syllable and learn to read.
====Application pédagogique 2====
====''Recognition of numbers from 0 to 20 and signs of three operations: +, × and ÷ in
first and second years.''====
''Level (s)'': 1st year and 2nd year of primary
''Knowledge'': The numbers from 0 to 20, addition and subtraction.
''Savoirfaire'':
Read, count and count the numbers from 0 to 20. Calculate the amounts or
differences less than or equal to 20.
''History'':
The teacher wrote the numbers on the blackboard, asks students to recognize the
keyboard, typing and press Enter. The XO refers to the sound from the figure that will be repeated by
students. For example, typing 0, they will hear "zero". This will enable them to
recognize by sight and hearing the numbers. Thus, students learn
easy to count and calculate. For the calculation, with the meaning of the signs that
return the XO, students can ensure that the transaction is that fact that he was
requested. This could help to overcome the errors of signs observed in
activities in mathematics.
====Pedagogical application 3====
====''Improvement of the lexical spelling.''====
==Level (s)==: 1st year of primary
''Knowledge'': Accents and punctuation
''Savoirfaire'':
Identify punctuation and place the necessary emphasis in a text at
least ten sentences.
''History'':
The teacher dictates a word, phrase or text. When the student finished, he types Enter.
The computer returns to the sounds of words. Take for example the word "consequence". If
forgot the accent on the "e", the XO will return to "consequence". At that time, students went
account of his error and bring the necessary correction. Similarly, students can learn
reading techniques respecting not only the punctuation, but also the diction of
words. This will facilitate the work of teachers and students in learning to read
of difficult words. If the student types such as "excess", the XO will give him the good
pronunciation of the word and keep it. It will be able to read words similar. Finally, given
that the XO is a pause after each punctuation mark, the student will not
only distinguish but also respect them during playback. For example,
Teacher asked to write the words "Mom goes to market she buys meat
vegetables and fruits and type Enter. The XO return the text block. Then the teacher
asked to put punctuation. "Mom goes to market. She buys meat,
vegetables and fruit. " The XO plays with sentence breaks and intonations.
====User Guide for Speak====
To access the Speak activity in the XO, after opening the prospect Welcome,
place the cursor on the icon represented by a mouth and two eyes. Three options
appear: Run, Remove the favorite, and Delete. Click on Start by pressing
the left button (X) of the touch pad to enter the business. Or to go
quickly, click on the icon to enter the business.

In this activity, there are several tabs and icons on the screen. The Voice tab,
allows you to change the language of communication. The tab allows you to adjust the face shape
the mouth. Gives a simple mouth smaller and resembles that of humans.
Waveform provides a wide mouth with ripples during playback. Frequency
gives a wider mouth with oscillations. Moreover, the pattern of eyes may
change. Provides round eyes and round glasses Glasses met with the icon.
The texts written in the blank space at the bottom of the screen will be delivered by the voice of
synthesis. The hook at the bottom right gives the directory of text written by the learner.

Finally, the activity can be shared with the neighborhood ie with users
connected network or in dyads and triads. Students will evaluate themselves, ie
that they can dictate words and check all spelling and
pronunciation. In calculating shape Thursday, a group could start the transaction in the XO,
and another written response. They will develop the cooperative spirit. The procedure
sharing activities with the neighborhood is described on pages 15 to 17 of the Introductory Guide
XO and the Sugar environment V.8.2.
