Practical Procedures to Generate Speech Development

Video Course

By Charlotte A. Boshart, M.A., CCC-SLP
6-Hour Video Course; .6 ASHA CEUs
Course Number: #9611

This information-packed video course offers easy-to-apply oral sensory-motor methods to maximize oral capability to generate speech development in the 3+ year-old articulation and phonologically impaired child.

Learn a valuable paradigm-base on which to build oral sensory-motor analysis and therapy procedures. Discover the three forms of sensory therapy, strategies to modify oral resting postures, techniques to compensate for abnormal oral hard and soft tissue concerns, as well as sequential facilitation techniques to shape differentiation and movement refinement of the jaw, lips and tongue. The new “Oral-Motor Matrix” presents practical remediation tasks for front-tongue sounds (s, sh, ch, l, etc.), and for back-tongue sounds (k, g, ng and especially r). Sound stimulation and helpful strategies to create consistency and habituation is also shared. This is Ms. Boshart’s best and most practical course.

Learning Outcomes

Each participant will be able to:

• Organize remediation sequences for articulation/phonological cases.
• Do and sequence over 40 tasks and adapt them according to oral capability.
• Transition from capability-based exercises to “sound stim.” activities.
• Generate jaw, lips, and tongue muscle tone, stabilization, and movement differentiation and refinement for speech production.
• Facilitate and establish good oral resting postures.
• Do cooperative mouthing techniques to generate oral movement in pre-linguistic children.
• Fix the distorted /r/ and frontal and lateral /s/—even the tough cases!
