From "clean buckets" to "sparkling jewelry," Adjective Remix uses thousands of real-life photo stimuli to help children master descriptive language through interactive gameplay.
Adjective Remix is designed to help students master descriptive words through thousands of interactive, high-fidelity real-world stimuli. By grounding instruction in reality, the app bridges the gap between digital play and functional communication.
The app encourages students to identify and distinguish between complex visual, tactile, and temporal concepts—from simple colors to intricate descriptors like "sparkling," "curved," or "modern".
Discriminate between visual qualities like "sparkling" using professional imagery.
Explore descriptive concepts such as "fresh" through high-fidelity stimuli.
Each turn shows two real photos and one simple question. Students listen, look closely and tap the picture that matches the adjective.
“Which bucket is clean?” The question is read aloud and shown on screen, so students can listen, read or both.
Real objects, not cartoons, help students connect each word to the world around them, from colors to feelings.
Every correct answer lights up a music note, so students see their progress right on the screen as they play.
Add your students, pick who is playing and take turns. Adjective Remix keeps each student’s answers separate, so group therapy still gives you individual data.
Language shouldn't be a barrier to mastery. Switch between English, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese instantly within the app settings to support bilingual education and global learners.

Adjective Remix gives educators the power to focus on specific linguistic concepts. Toggle entire categories on or off, or drill down to individual words to match a student's IEP goals or classroom curriculum.
Control everything from the presentation order to how the app handles incorrect responses—choose between "Keep Going," "No Response," or an "Audio Signal".
Deep-level customization for Size, Time, and Touch & Taste.
