Expressive language disorder

Language is how we communicate today. But there are several ways to communicate with others besides talking. There are people that are blind, deaf, or people who have speech impediments. All of these types of people have their own way of expressing and receiving a message. There are ways to learn these skills on language, and the body has reacts in certain ways when you are trying to receive the message and give the message. These skills can affect learning abilities. But we all have a…

My clinic client that I observe has his therapy session on Tuesdays at 10:15. He is around 3 years old and originally had the diagnosis of language delay. His diagnosis has changed from that to developmental articulation disorder and expressive language disorder. One thing that surprised me was that most of the activities during the therapy session are the client is just playing and then the clinician tries to get him to produce words and utterances. One specific experience that I remember was…

social and language development of typically developing infants. The lack of attention to speech and faces may indicate a delay or impediment of a child’s social and language development. For example, children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibit insufficiencies in simple processing of speech and faces of people. The first aim of the study was to determine if preference for infant-direct (ID) speech and faces differs between infant siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder…

Specific Language Impairment (SLI) is a language impairment in children that is characterized by atypical language development with no presence of cognitive or neurological deficits (Parisse & Millart, 2009). Expressive language production is vital to academic performance and social communication. Language skills observed in children with SLI is substantially below that of typically developing peers. Due to the wide range of deficits in both receptive and expressive language in children with SLI…

An articulation disorder occurs when an individual has trouble with producing specific sounds. For example, a person may substitute sounds or leave out parts of a word. An individual could even change part of the word or add sounds to the word. After viewing therapy for articulation disorders, I concluded that the SLP will target the specific sounds that the patient is having problems producing. For example, in this specific video clip, the child is fronting her velars, so the SLP wants to…

students with overall language and comprehension weaknesses and those with phonemic awareness difficulties and attention deficits have difficulties with learning to read. a) Individuals with language weaknesses have difficulties with language comprehension and background knowledge. Their ability to use language receptively and expressively is impaired, and, as a result their ability to process language for use in reading and writing is often delayed. Frequently, those with language deficits can…

Emotional disorders have become an important topic in education with the development of ideas to help better support students both socially and academically. Students exhibiting emotional disorders have a wide range of behavioral traits and personal characteristics. Although these students are unique, they exhibit similar emotional characteristics that place them under the “umbrella of emotional disturbance”. Students with emotional disturbance can be described as socially withdrawn. They may…

theory can be used to describe Amanda’s language development. In this theory “language is learned, not innate. It relies on generic cognitive information-processing and pattern-recognition mechanisms” (Wolf-Nelson, 2010, p.61). In this theory children use cognitive abilities such as attention, perception, working memory and retrieval to receive information form their environment and construct language competence by using information processes and language. In this theory neuronal functions are…
