Speech & Comprehension
Seven separate skill tracks, each with five steps. A child can be at a different step in every track, and moves on when they show they’re ready — never because time has passed.
Each step goes learn → practise → check. Not sure where to begin? Every track has a short, optional starting check — or just pick a step yourself. Your progress is saved in this browser only; see it in My Practice.

Roo Bloom supports learning and practice at home. It does not assess, diagnose or replace an assessment by a qualified speech pathologist. Levels are teaching steps, not scores, and there is no one right way to communicate — speech, signs, pointing, pictures and communication devices all count.
