Reading comprehension
Arcuate Fasciculus
Arcuate Fasciculus

Transfering expressive to receptive
Arcuate Fasciculus
intervention to help with Broca’s area
increase length of utterance (# of words in sentence)
Bilateral temporal lobe
Speech and phonological processing
Superior temporal lobe
accessing lexical representation
Self talk
important for self management and understanding
Frequent requests for repetition
poor word reading
poor auditory and phonological processing
Damage to left hemi (SUPERIOR temporal lobe)
Poor preception of rate and pitch or prosody
difficulty with complex sentence processing
Damage to right hemi (SUPERIOR temporal lobe)
Can’t remember facts and words difficulty with long term memory, poor categorization
Damage to left hemi ( LATERAL / Medial temporal lobe)
Limited understanding of context metaphor, multiple word meaning and humor
Damage to RIGHT hemi ( LATERAL / MEDIAL temporal lobe)
Self-talk: paraphrasing is a great way to show ______.
comprehension
Kids who struggle with this will use the exact same words as in the passage. Get them to say it in another way,
Intervention strategies: get them to repeat it back in their own words
Angular gyrus:
sound symbol association
Fluency and reading quickly and efficiently:
temporal lobe, ventral stream and cerebellum
Phonological:
superior left temporal lobe, top part of temporal lobe
Explicit language, facts and details: l
left temporal lobe and wernicke’s area
Speech:
Broca’s area for soudning out words, expressive language. Dysfunction in left hemisphere has problems with those listed.
Prosody, music of speech:
right superior temporal lobe.
Complex language, implicit language, complex syntax: Broca’s area
Broca’s area
implicit comprehension:
Wernicke’s area important, back right.
Dysfunction: don’t get meaning of complex/implicit language.
