{"product_id":"penpal-talking-pen","title":"PENPal Talking Pen","description":"PENPal is the next generation of TalkingPEN. Easier to use, rechargeable and with a 4GB memory, it replaces the previous RecorderPEN and works in the same way to bring sound to paper. The PENpal brings sound to paper. When the pen touches a poster or a book that is pen-enabled, it speaks. The pen detects soundspots on any page in a book or on any graphics on the poster and plays back narrations, questions, answers, quizzes, music or sound effects - whatever audio has been pre-programmed into the paper.\nThe PENpal doesn't just play back pre-recorded sound. You can use the pen to record yourself, or let children record themselves, and listen to recordings instantly. Simply switch to the recording function, touch a soundspot and record and save. This is a fantastic way to improve speaking, listening and storytelling skills. Children can re-tell the stories in books, and with our Talking Stickers, they can add content to anything: posters, books, puppets...\nThis extremely exciting new resource can be used in countless ways. It's fantastic for EAL: parents can record in their own language for children, and teachers can customise their resources to make them fully inclusive. We have products for children aged 4 - adult, and Talking Stickers which can be used to customise resources for any age-group -- they're even useful for adult learning.\nPENpal is rechargeable and can hold up to 4GB worth of audio files. It comes with 2 AAA \u003cu\u003erechargeable\u003c\/u\u003e batteries and USB cable. A 2 hour charge will last a day's normal use.\nHere are some suggestions for the use of the PENpal and sticky labels for creating customised materials for new arrival EAL learners - audio recordings can be in English and a range of other languages pertinent to the school context e.g.\n- Talking uniform - what is needed for day to day, for PE, where to purchase etc\n- Audio\/Visual timetable - who the teachers are, how to find places, what the subjects are about etc\n- Map of school - key points explained orally\n- Dual-language equipment lists\n- Translation of important forms - medical, ethnic monitoring etc...\n- Explanations of rules\nPlease note: The PENPal Taking Pen is not compatible older edition books unless stickers are used. It now operates with a different installed software program compared to the previous Talking Pen.\nPlease contact our office - \u003ca href=\"mailto:sales@\"\u003esales@\u003c\/a\u003e for more information prior to ordering.\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=25MmxfEvbfU\u0026amp;list=PL61B18B391D4802F0\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClick here for more information on PenPal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e","brand":"Lengua","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42570553458775,"sku":null,"price":210.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/0131\/1831\/files\/Penpalwebcopy-01.jpg?v=1772138334","url":"https:\/\/www.lengua.com.au\/products\/penpal-talking-pen","provider":"Lengua Pty Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
