About this session
This session is designed as an introduction to typical speech sounds development in children and will support participants to be able to understand and successfully implement speech sound programmes for specific children.
Do you work with children whose speech you don’t understand?
Are you frustrated that you have a child who can say a speech sound in one situation but not in another?
Have you been sent a speech sound programme from a speech & language therapist and you’re not sure what it means or where to start?
This session will provide a little background on speech acquisition and lots of tried and tested ideas to keep the child (and you!) motivated to keep practicing and get that sound right.
There is also a question-and-answer session built in for you to raise specific issues.
