Just a Few Words progress monitor database:

 

Just a Few Words database holds 522 high frequency words and, as these words account for around 90% of everything a person says in a day, we want to monitor our son's progress in learning their locations on his communication aid.

Michael's Pathfinder records all utterances generated on it. The log outputs a text file with each word date- and time-stamped. We divide each day's flog into 'sessions' by matching it to Michael's school timetable, so we can monitor vocabulary usage in all situations and contexts.

Words not yet used will guide future lesson plans. Follow a link below to view the queries listed: (Website not connected to database yet, but gifs of the wordlists returned from each query reside on the pages for now).
