Speech and Language Services
Evaluation for Speech and Language Skills
Screenings and Evaluations are tailored to your child's needs. The evaluation may include a combination of the following: articulation, fluency, phonological awareness skills, expressive and receptive language skills, auditory processing skills, and/or pragmatic language skills. In addition, parent and teacher input is an integral part of the evaluation.
Articulation and Fluency Skills
Articulation and Fluency Therapy Sessions focus on pronunciation of speech sounds in words, sentences, and conversation. In addition, these sessions target fluency-enhancing strategies to ensure children can communicate effectively and efficiently.
Expressive, Receptive and Pragmatic Language Skills
Expressive, Receptive, and Pragmatic Language Therapy Sessions focus on learning how to express wants/needs effectively, using grammatical forms correctly, and increasing vocabulary knowledge. In addition, these sessions target strategies for listening comprehension and auditory processing skills with a focus on following directions, answering questions, and understanding verbal messages. These sessions also focus on teaching social skills including, but not limited to, making appropriate eye-contact, problem-solving, and inferencing.
Pre-Literacy and Literacy Skills
Pre-Literacy and Literacy Therapy Sessions focus on enriching your child's decoding and reading skills by teaching phonological awareness skills: rhyming, letter-sound correspondence, decoding, segmenting, and syllable knowledge. In addition, these sessions also target reading comprehension skills.
