===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.
