Let’s talk SPECTRUM. No, not the autism spectrum

Let’s talk SPECTRUM.
No, not the autism spectrum.
I’m talking about the spectrum of speech sound disorders.

On one side we have phonology 🧠
On the other side we have articulation 👅

When you hear a /w/ substitution, that’s a PATTERN that indicates a PHONOLOGICAL disorder. And that will require a PHONOLOGICAL intervention. Think: minimal pairs

When you hear an /R/ DISTORTION, that indicates an ARTICULATION disorder. That requires an articulation approach to therapy. Think: artic hierarchy

In reality, it’s not quite that black and white. And just about every /R/ kiddo that steps foot in your room will have BOTH and will require you to balance multiple approaches to their treatment- phonological AND articulation. 🙌🏻

What do you hear in this video? 👂

How cute is this kiddo right? I just want to give him all the “ememems.” 😆
One of my goals for Speechy Things is to post more therapy videos (ALWAYS with appropriate parent consent). Does that sound good to y’all? 🥳

Left a voicemail with Senator Cornyn's office and spoke with someone at Senator Cruz's office. Took 5 minutes tops.

PLEASE don't feel like you can't enact change. You can. So can your family & friends. SHARE THIS. Make it as easy for them as possible.

Thank you @sharonsaysso for leading the way on this. Go follow her for reliable updates and ways to help. She's a wealth of information today and every day.

New blog post is up! 🥳

Let me just say, I LOVE IT when I read research that affirms what I’m already doing in therapy. (Not that it’s always the case 🤪).

This is my precious, sweet, sassy, giggly, squishy, oh-so-lovable little “WHY.” I am grateful every single day for this life I’m blessed to live. Happy Mothers Day to the mamas and huge hugs to the hurting hearts today. 💛

I got a DM last week about this resource and it reminded me that I haven’t shared it in a while!

The power of VISUALS, y’all! I find it so dang helpful for my students to use a combination of orthographic (written word), tactile (run finger along the arrow), and visual (mouth image) cues while working on R. This specific resource is meant to help maintain the R in new contexts AND speed up productions to get things sounding more fluid and natural. It doesn’t change the motor plan to practice something SLOW! Such a helpful trick for our artic kids! 🙌🏻

Do you have a favorite type of cue to use?

I just want to say thank y’all for sticking arou

I just want to say thank y’all for sticking around as I continue to navigate motherhood, wifehood, and SLPhood. As we enter this new chapter with a new house 🏡 🥳 I’m really trying to keep grounded. Speechy Things is a huge priority for me but I’m trying to make sure these two humans always come first. 💛

I know I’m not the only one who struggles with balance, though. Many of y’all are in the same boat 🛶 and in good company, I’m sure. 👯‍♀️

Happy Monday, everybody!
