Childhood Apraxia of Speech
- For children with a severe speech sound disorder who display many characteristics typically associated with apraxia of speech in adults.
- Primarily a sensory-motor disorder affecting articulatory and prosodic parameters of speech production
Prompt
A tactile, kinesthetic, and visual cuing system originally developed for the treatment of CAS
Touch que method
uses tactile cues to the face and neck along with auditory and visual cues and in three major stages progresses from nonsense syllables to spontaneous speech
Adapted cuing techinique
uses hand motions to prompt the articulatory movements and manner of production of the target productions
Integral stimulation
an auditory and visual model with the prompt β watch me and listen to meβ
The child is expected to imitate the modeled movement in a repetitive fashion
Progressive assimilation
The clinician attempts to reestablish production of the target sounds from sounds that are not affected or from other nonspeech gestures
Phonetic placement techniques
physically guiding the articulators to specific positions and locations
Contrastive stress drills
- Used to promote articulatory proficiency and natural prosody in children with apraxia of speech
- Suited to teach appropriate stresses and rhythms of spoken language
Proprioceptive cues
In speech sound training, images and other sensory cues that prompt correct movements of the articulator for speech sound production
Traditional Approach
A highly structured classic approach to the treatment of articulation disorders that progresses from sensory perceptual training to production training and then from the sound in isolation to the maintenance of learned behaviors in nonclinical settings across time
Shadowing
or echo speech, the clinician says the target sentence and then gives the child a signal to indicate that it is his or her turn
Unison speech
hand tapping or other signals of rhythm are employed in sentence production
Role playing
Can be used with children who cannot produce the target sound in a normal training context
Transfer
means the same as generalization
Carryover
The regular use of newly learned speech or language skills in everyday situations
