Enhancing Phonological & Metaphonological Skills of Children with Highly Unintelligible Speech: Hodson's Cycles Approach

Description

Join Lesley Magnus, PhD, CCC-SLP, for a day focused on children with severely impaired phonological systems, including those who have been labeled as having Childhood Apraxia of Speech. You will learn
techniques for expediting intelligibility gains, including identification of phonological deviations, selection of optimal target patterns, and specific information regarding treatment. Because children with highly unintelligible
speech frequently experience difficulties in the domain of early literacy, information about assessing and enhancing metaphonological skills will be discussed. Additionally, assessment results and outcome data for a preschool client along with video clips will be provided to exemplify
evidence-based practices. In addition, information about children with other concerns (e.g., repaired cleft palate) will also be presented.
