Adapting your communication by using sign language or pictures, flashcards or slowing down your pace will also encourage a child and giving them

I would make sure the context of the communication was age appropriate using simple words that

There are different intervention groups and work in order to support pupils who are not progressing at the same rate. This will be advised by senco or other professionals who have links with the school.

Need more time to get their view across. Giving them the time with no interruption can allow them not to feel pressure when they are speaking. Always adapt your communication accordingly to each individual child needs. Allowing them to speak freely, in their own time and with out interruption. If you do not adapt this, communication can be broken; it can distress them and reduce confidence to interact.

what to say will be much easier for the child to understand and follow. Continually telling children what they are doing wrong will not help them learn the correct or appropriate behaviour.

| Presents to the responder that the kids are still young and immature to be handling these kind of situations.

and let the child concentrate, as at this time his/her attention is on something that he is

The child born thus may be able to say certain sounds but not be able to speak clearly as the vocal chords may be affected or due to damage in the brain that controls language.

Our book tells us that children around age 4 are “ sensitive to the characteristics of their conversational partner.” (Arnett, p. 256) So it is around this age that they begin to alter their speech depending on the situation. When Kevin Jr was 3 his communication was not very great. He was still speaking in two to three word sentences so people really couldn’t understand what he was trying to say. This got Kevin Jr very frustrated and he would always throw tantrums when he couldn’t communicate. When he turned 4 not much really changed as he continued to struggle with his language. Even at preschool he would get frustrated because no one could understand what he was saying. At this age he was speaking at a 3rd grade language. Kevin Jr loves it when I rad to him so while reading I started to encourage him to contribute more to the reading in hopes of developing his language more. When Kevin Jr turned 6 was really where we seen a vast amount of improvement. He is now communicating in grammatically correct sentences and his vocabulary was steadily expanding. To continue to develop his skills I worked with him on computer programs designed to build language and reading skills. As a result to no surprise he became more and more

This article from Scientific American Mind gives readers explanation as to why babies do not come out of the womb talking like adults. Also, the author discusses how babies learn to talk and the steps they take to achieve their highest language capacity. The article provides two main theories as an answer to the age-old question about baby language and how it becomes adult language. The mental hypothesis is simply that babies are not cognitively ready to speak like adults. Their brains have not made the necessary connections to form words, let alone form full sentences with proper fluency and syntax like

• Gradually introducing your child to one new person at a time. Encourage your child to speak to each new

Unlike conductive hearing loss causes, sensorineural loss is associated with the function of the inner ear, including the nerves associated with hearing. Tumors, otosclerosis and other forms of genetic hearing loss conditions can all contribute to this type of loss.

The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association did a study called Childhood Apraxia of Speech, that studies a variety of aspects that come with speech apraxia. According to the research, symptoms can begin young, as early as an infant. It describes multiple-- such as lack of cooing or babbling noises as being an indicator. If a child takes a long time to produce sounds or is missing prominent sounds within the word, then they will have a harder times picking up noises later on delaying their speech. As a child grows up and begins producing more words, they may simplify words by replacing certain sounds with ones they’re familiar with. A strange one most parents are unaware of is if a baby struggles to eat it can be a sign of a jaw issue that can lead to a speech deficit or inability to speak. As a child begins to develop, subtle signs like these may be missed and more prominent signs may start showing such as inconsistent sound errors, having an adept understanding of words even though they lack the ability to speak, issues producing sounds physically, gravitating towards shorter words for simplicity, and struggling through words when nervous (ASHA 1). Early detection of signs such as the ones listed can lead to early intervention which will result in better treatment options. A child who enters school age with these prominent signs unattended to can be mocked for their differences and struggle to adapt. It can also lead to issues later on as they attempt to continue their education. The lack of an adequate ability to speak can lead to various issues concerning verbal conduct and education in the long run. Although this is a form of special education, it can sometimes be worked through or managed, that way a child doesn’t have to suffer through something

This is not an easy task. Often times parents have a point they need to get across in a hurry and that is all that matters. However, if we begin with infant speech and continue on the process becomes easier and more a of habit. It may sound silly at first, but experts agree, it works.

Similarly to her physical development her cognitive develop is also maturing at what theorists would say is a normal rate. I feel that reaching a certain age of seven, a child should be rapidly expanding vocabulary. While observing the child throughout my case study but more intentionally over the past few months I have seen each of these characteristics in one way or another. She progressed through the building blocks of language beginning with babbling and moving through her first word around fifteen months and first sentence a little later. While her mother does not know the exact time when she started babbling and spoke her first sentence, she does recall however, never being concerned about the development. Currently, she is speaking in
