_____ is the basis of communication
Speech
- A pattern of sounds

-Created by movements of articulators

What word am I describing?
Speech
Articulators are composed of what 5 things?
Lips, tongue, jaw, soft palette, and vocal folds
Just know:

-The speaker must maintain control over the movements to produce intelligible speech

-Well timed muscle contractions move the articulators in a precise manner.
Know
Ventilatory System: Just know

-Structures exchange air in and out of the lungs

-The ventilatory system is the power source for speech

-Inspiration or inhalation is drawing air into the lungs
Know
_____ is the muscle separating the abdomen and chest cavity. It's movement expands and contracts the lungs.
Diaphragm
What are vocal folds or vocal cords?
They are changes in the air pressure that cause the folds to open and close to produce sound
The larynx is also known as your ____
Voice box
Where is the larynx located?
upper end of the trachea (windpipe)
Just know: The larynx

-Houses two tiny folds of tissues which open and close

-vocal folds are the source of the voice

-rapid vibration of the vocal folds produces voice

-folds vibrate by opening and closing which chops the air
Know
Cavities of the upper airway like the oral cavity, the nasal cavity, and the pharyngeal cavity are part of the _____
Vocal tract
What are two speech mechanisms?
Vocal tract and articulators
Your teeth and hard palate are ____
static (in a fixed position)
Air pressure is regulated by _____ which allow the speaker to produce a wide range of sounds.
Articulators
The speech sounds source is the _____
Vocal fold vibration
_____ are vocal fold vibrations
Vocal sounds
Unvoiced sounds are when _____
The folds are open, but are not vibrating.
Vocal fold movements produce _____, and _____.
Dipthongs and nasal sounds
_____ are two vowel sounds in the same syllable

Ex: "hey" has e-a sound
Dipthongs
What are nasal sounds?
"M" sounds
Vowels, dipthongs, nasal sounds, and approximants are all _____
Speech sounds produced in the larynx
The tongue assumes different positions for each _____ sound.
Vowel
_____ are vowel like sounds produced with a gradual change in articulation
Dipthongs
_____ are sounds created in the larynx that pass through the nose
Nasal sounds
_____ are consonant sounds
Approximants
What are two types of approximants?
Glides and liquids
_____ are a gliding movement from a narrower to more open vocal tract.

Example: "R" or "L" sounds. "Roof"
Glides
What are liquids?
vocal vibrations without additional movements.
Stop sounds: Just know

- Speaker must form a closure in the oral cavity

-Build up pressure behind the point of closure

-Suddenly release the closure- a burst of sound

-"P" and "B" are produced with closure at the lips

-"T" and "D" are produced where the tongue is bunched against the velum or soft palate

-"P", "T", and "L" are voiceless stops (no vocal fold vibration)

-"B", "D", and "G" are voiced stops (vocal fold vibrates)
Know
Fricative sounds: Just know

-Are Noise sounds that can be prolonged by the speaker

-Speaker must form a significant constriction in the vocal tract

-Build up pressure, and then force air through the constriction

-Fricative sounds include:
'F' as in fish
'z' as in zoo
'v' as in vase'
's' as in sun
'm' as in moon

^^^^ These are all prolonged sounds (can hold the sound)
Know
Affricative sounds are _____
combination sounds
_____ involves a stop closure followed by a fricative release
Affricative sounds
Know

Examples of affricative sounds:
'Ch' sound in church
'dge' sound in judge
Know
The voice is responsible for _____, ______, and _____.
Voice, rhythm, and intonation
_____ and _____ influence language content
Stress and intonation
_____ indicated whether what is being said is a question or statement.

Rising intonation= question
Rising-falling intonation= statement
Stress
_____ affects meaning by producing a syllable within a word in a manner that is louder, longer, and higher in pitch

Example:
BEN loves Jerry
Ben LOVES Jerry
Ben loves JERRY
Word stress
_____ requires the speaker to carefully coordinate the contraction of hundreds of muscles throughout the speech mechanism
Speech
What happens if the movements of articulators are incomplete or mistimed?
Abnormal airflow and pressures will cause speech to be unintelligible or cause incorrect sounds
Repeating one or two syllables even 10 out of 100 times is considered _____
Stuttering
True or false: A stutter may repeat the first syllable of a word or prolong a sound in a word
True
_____ is talking too quickly, slurring or omitting syllables. A person may speak in bursts of speech or pause in the middle of an utterance.
Cluttering
A person with ______ has difficulty producing sounds in words. May substitute sounds, omit sounds, or add sounds
Articulation disorders
A person with _____ may have difficulty sequencing sounds in words or have difficulty with multisyllabic words.
Apraxia
Just know:

Apraxia is difficulty with the brain, sometimes after a stroke. However, it can happen to children who have never had a stroke. People with apraxia tend to be slower communicators.
Know
Strategies for teachers: Just know

-Create a climate of emotional acceptance in the classroom. Don't avoid children who stutter or talk slow

-Be an attentive listener

-Use a slower speaking rate when talking

-Reduce classroom noise
