Developing Language - Goal Setting And Intervention Flashcards
Interventions in phonology
- Rhyming
- Syllable awareness
- Sounds in SIWI and SIWF
How do we do contrastive drills
Develop lists of pairs of words in which the two words in each pair differ in specific ways.
two words that differ by only one feature of the target phoneme are presented for contrast.
Minimal Pairs Approach
words that differ maximally on the target phoneme, so that the contrasting words differ not just on one feature of the target phoneme but on several
Maximal or multiple opposition
how do we do drill play
- Hide and seek
- Safari
- Sack Ball
- Buried
Why do we use computer assisted intervention
- Successful in motivating clients to persist with the drills of the software program
- Provides good contexts for teaching action verbs
- Not to become a replacement for an interactive environment with a responsive adult
Possible targets in morphosyntax
Possible Targets:
1. Auxiliary verbs
2. Verb inflections
3. Articles (a, an, the) 4. Pronouns
5. Complex sentences
no specific goals are identified): most appropriate for children with
MLU <3.0
ILS in its pure form
incorporate some specific goals and use it as a way to provide multiple
meaningful models of target forms
Modified ILS
How do we do modified ILS
How:
a. Provide a more contrived play setting by selecting the materials for the child.
b. Suggest activities and model play behaviors to make it highly probable that the
need for target forms and meanings will arise.
c. Employ expansion, extension, recast, and buildups and breakdowns.
particularly effective for children in the DL period
Recast sentences
How do we do facilitated play
Model forms of play appropriate for this developmental period: role-playing and using objects symbolically.
For children with poor assertive skills: Engage the children in entertaining interactive activities in which they must do something to sustain the interaction.
Conversation
What: holistic, goal-directed, sequentially organized sets of activities that have prototypic features but some internal variation
Script therapy using event structures
How do we do script therapy using event structures
How:
1. Choose event structures from the “real world”, like ordering food in a restaurant or going grocery shopping. Use these as contexts for developing verbal routines.
2. Use props to act out the event structure, with the clinician first modeling the entire verbal script.
3. Cloze procedures can be used to elicit increasingly large parts of the verbal script from the clients. 4. Eventually the clients can act out and recite the entire event structure.
5. Trading of roles may be done so that each gets a chance to produce all the parts of the verbal script.
6. Variations on the event structure and its verbal script can be imposed. Going to the grocery may be changed to going to the pet store.
7. Finally, the clinician can play a role in the event structure and violate the expected events or dialogues that are familiar to the clients.
