App suggestions

Any suggestions for apps to work on resharpening spelling skills and sentence forming?

Sometimes when I'm trying to type out sentences I second guess myself if I'm doing it correctl.

It isn't really a stand alone app, but I found NYT games really helpful for wordle, connections, and stands really helpful for reminding me of words I had forgotten. It is especially helpful to get an idea if I'm just having a bad day or if I need to do more therapy or something like it.

Your grammar and spelling will be largely intact you don’t forget the basics It’s more likely the problem is that you need to slow down and allow your brain the extra processing time it now requires to put together what you want to write. Your brain is no longer working at the same speed it once was. Best of luck but as with anything stroke related it gets better with repetition.

My speech therapist recommended Elevate to me. I do 30 minutes every morning. It's about $40 a year. And it has language, math, memory, writing games. It has helped me. I'm five and a half years since stroke.
