Factors And Mechanisms Of Chain Shifts

c. Isolate and pronounce initial, medial vowel, and final sounds (phonemes) in spoken single‐syllable words.(1.RF.2.c)

Increasing Kara-lynn’s speech intelligibility will be the primary target of treatment. The multiple oppositions approach with maximally distinct targets will be utilized to treat Kara-lynn’s phoneme collapses into /d/. She collapses multiple phonemes into /d/ in word initial, medial, and final positions including some stops, fricatives, and consonant clusters. The multiple oppositions approach targets phoneme collapse by simultaneously contrasting the errored sounds with the target sounds .This helps the child recognize their own patterns of error and make widespread changes to their sound system as a whole(consider adding reference).

The cueing system is made up of four cueing systems: Grapho-phonemic, Syntactic, Semantic, and Pragmatic. Each is used in language development and are important for communication. Grapho-phonemic cues are related to the sounds we hear (both individual letters and letter combinations), the letters of the alphabet and the conventions of print (Hughes, The Four Cueing Systems, 2007). Syntactic cueing system is having knowledge about language. The syntactic system provides information about the form and the structure of the language, including whether or not

Outcomes of taught target sounds can generalize to other sounds and contexts if the clinician provides the client with adequate training and opportunities, compared to assuming that acquisition in one setting will automatically generalize (McReynolds, 1989). Clinicians must plan for generalization before the start of treatment (Kearns, 1989). Factors for generalization can include: treatment approach and target phonemes. In order for the client to generalize the treatment, therefore showing true success, the client needs an effective treatment approach. Although not one

I will determine whether [æ] and [eʌ] appear to be allophonic or contrastive by examining those target sounds in “Dataset B” and “Dataset A”. Both sounds are present in the datasets but they are never seen together in the same word. The environments of the sounds are determined in (i) and organized by sound to see if there are any patterns that arise.

Learning how to count in four different languages (the fourth as a song) is one of my earliest memories which I can still recall. I have a minimal recollection of how I learned to read apart from the

Experiment 1 conceptualized the “basic ability to suppress homophone priming effect” (2013). By using a 2x2 design; each experiment occupies a cognitive load factor. So by showing the words “bye” and “buy” to replace one another Davis and Herr understand how the cognitive functioning is at work. The results of this experiment show that there is a basic inability to suppress the homophobic priming meaning that their hypothesis was not supported however; it is understood similar to Van Orden, that homophonic foils have an effect on how one comprehend certain words when placed in a sentence or category and how one may perceive that and its definition based on the sound.

The book by S.I. Hayakawa Language in Thought and Action, 1990 continues to show me how to look at things differently. I am becoming more knowledgeable as I continue to read through the chapters. As I was reading chapters eight through twelve, it talked about the phases that I can relate to.

Sound changes don’t have randomly; it follows sound change rules. For instance, English and Spanish are both in the Proto-Indo-European language family and the origin constant P in the Proto-Indo-European became F in English but maintain same pronunciation in Spanish, such that the word father in English, is padre in Spanish.

There are eight different levels for the oral interaction and seven for both reading and writing. In addition to these seven levels there are three beginning strands which converge with the main strands. These strands describe the initial understanding about reading and writing in English

This is interpreted as because the capacity of the phonological loop is limited in time (in Smith, 2007).

According to Peña-Brooks and Hegde (2015), phonological processes describe the simplification of adult speech production based on different sound classifications. Naturally, typically developing children undergo through this process while learning how to correctly articulate their speech sounds. Each phonological process describes how a child overcomes a specific sound classification by using what they have already acquired. In their attempts to follow the adult model, these phonological processes become consistent patterns. For instance, if a child has not mastered fricative sounds then he/she might replace it with a stop otherwise known as stopping.

Increasing the number of words isn’t enough because the speech recognition system is unable to differentiate words like ‘to’ and ‘two’ or ‘right’ and ‘write’ (6 ,p.98).

However, Pinker (1994) then goes onto note that the particular sub-stage of reduplicated babbling occurs around 7-8 months, and states that the children will exercise phonemes and syllable patterns that are not specific to a singular language, but rather are seen as common across a variety of languages. Yet, Pinker (1994) does also argue that the children are able to distinguish between phonemes of their own mother tongue, which has been seen from birth, and this is seen to be more prominent by the time the child reaches the age of around 10 months. Pinker (1994) refers to this as the children no longer being ‘universal phoneticians’, and states that the children will no longer distinguish foreign phonemes.

In the first stage, called the Emergent Stage, children are able to convey his/her message by scribbling, drawing shapes, writing mock letters, and/or random strings of letters/numbers. In some cases, one letter represents an entire word or the most salient sound of a word. Some Emergent children confuse letters, numbers, and letter-like forms and substitute letters and sounds that feel and look alike (e.g., the sounds /v/ and /f/, the letters d and b)
