The Processing Program® Bundle (2nd Edition) is a complete three-level picture-identification task program spanning basic through advanced language-processing skills, designed for use by Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) with students in grades prekindergarten through grade 8 and children and youth ages 3 to 14 across the full developmental range of language-processing intervention.
Three progressive programme levels with 345 full-colour picture plates give Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) a complete, evidence-based language-processing intervention system, from 46 basic concepts through 118 advanced concepts in increasingly complex command structures, in a single bundle.
The Processing Program® Bundle combines all three 2nd Edition levels. Level 1 (359 pages) targets 46 basic concepts for children ages 3 to 11: singular/plural nouns, pronouns, sizes, colours, quantities, prepositions, and conjunctions across 161 picture plates and 11 progressive levels. Level 2 (in the Levels 2 and 3 manual, 407 pages total, hardback) targets 101 advanced concepts for children ages 6 to 9 using 119 picture plates. Level 3 (in the same manual) uses the same concepts as Level 2, plus 17 additional concepts in longer, more complex commands for ages 9 to 12, using 65 picture plates. All three levels use the Altered Auditory Input (AAI) technique and Language Webs to systematically reduce auditory processing demands and build comprehension of complex directions.

Who is this processing program bundle helpful for?
The Processing Program® Bundle is designed for students in grades prekindergarten through grade 8 and children and youth ages 3 to 14 with difficulty processing language, including those with attention deficit disorders, auditory processing disorders, autism spectrum disorder, and cochlear implants. Used by Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) across the full continuum of language-processing intervention from early childhood through adolescence.
Why Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) love this bundle:
Having all three levels in a single bundle provides a complete language-processing intervention system that carries students from initial basic concept instruction through complex multi-step direction following without switching programmes at any transition point. The AAI technique and Language Web framework are consistent across all three levels, which means clinicians and parents learn one approach that scales in complexity rather than adapting to a new methodology at each stage.
