A comprehensive overview of the relationship between phonological awareness and speech sound disorders in children. It covers key topics such as the importance of early, middle, and late developing sounds, common phonological processes, assessment methods, error analysis, treatment target selection, and the role of phonological awareness in reading development. The document also explores the differences between various speech sound disorders, including apraxia, dysarthria, and phonological errors. Additionally, it discusses the different models of phonological awareness intervention and the skills that develop along a continuum. Likely to be useful for university students, particularly those studying speech-language pathology, as it covers a wide range of relevant topics and provides insights that could be valuable for both study and clinical practice.

Why is understanding/knowing normal speech sound acquisition important? list the reasons - ANSWER>> can compare to normative data, can't know typical if you don't know atypical, referral assessment, diagnosis, selecting intervention targets, prep dismissal how do we study speech sound acquisition at different ages - ANSWER>> high amplitude sucking, conditioned head turn paradigm, event related potentials, eye tracking, habituation - starks stages starks stages - ANSWER>> 1. reflexive 2. control of phonation 3. expansion 4. basic canonical 5. advanced form be able to explain infant directed speech - ANSWER>> motherese - high pitch, fluctuating intonation, hyperarticulation, short utterences, greater frequencies why are early, middle late sounds important - ANSWER>> based on children with speech sound disorders - same pattern holds true to most children (even with errors)
severe: below 50% name three common standardized single-word phonological/articulation assessment

since children may produce forms that reflect more than one pattern
You are an SLP working with a first grade student named Molly. Molly cannot produce the /r/ or /s, z/ sounds. Molly's mom is very motivated to "fix" Molly's speech and so she has asked what kinds of activities she can do at home. You note that Molly's mom has a slight /r/ distortion in her speech and also has a hard time discriminating Molly's "good" /r/ productions. What kinds of carryover activities might you ask Molly's mom to do? - ANSWER>> have mother not focus on /r/ but other phonological awareness skills - want parent to be a big part in development - whole language issues - story book reading, reading that involves phonological awareness, coordinate with teacher, the /r/ start app what are three things parents can do at home to foster phonological awareness in preschool children? - ANSWER>> engage children in reciting nursery rhymes together - clap the beat, identifiy first phoneme in child's/family's names, clap out syllables in children's names or segment short names into phonemes, read storybooks with interesting sound patterns - draw attention to these what are the three prevalent models of phonological awareness intervention????????
deep phonological awareness. - ANSWER>> shallow: word awareness, rhyme awareness deep: phoneme blending, phoneme segmentation although phonological awareness develops along a continuum, discuss the skills that would be expected to develop first, next and last???? - ANSWER>> Compare and contrast norm-referenced, criterion-referenced, and dynamic assessments as they apply to examining phonological awareness in children with SSD. What are the benefits of each, and what are the cautions for each? Which would you choose for a 5-year-old child with a moderate speech sound disorder who was struggling with phonological awareness at the level of rhyming? - ANSWER>> norm referenced: normative sample for developing instrument, cautious for applying these norms for children - accounts for diffferiential eduational experiences - useful in delieating the extent to which children show phonological awareness difficulties in comparison to age matched peers. Also, they can be helpful for identifying which children need intensive phonological aware intervention. Criterion-referenced assessments are used in determining a child's performance against a specific criterion. The performance is alternatively not compared to a group of similarly aged peers, but to a certain curriculum based standard. Clinicians and SLPs can choose specific criterion-referenced tasks to be used for screening for individual children's deficits and difficulties. The more informal tasks are used to identify the children who are struggling compared to the published criteria, label a child's level of performance, delineate the goals of intervention, track progress and determine when intervention is no longer necessary. Although, with standardized assessments, there are drawbacks when considering dialectical differences, vocabulary knowledge and overall needs for more appropriate and specialized testing for certain children. Dynamic Assessment explores children's performance in response to different types of cues given by clinician's. This provides a method for receiving a clearer idea of
including substitution of an entire phoneme class, difficulty rhyming and decreasing intelligibility is called - ANSWER>> phonological disorders speech production errors including substitutions, low PCC, decreased intelligibility is called - ANSWER>> not enough information to differenciate AOS and dysarthria or phonological error all have - ANSWER>> decreased intelligibility or problem will PCC - will vary phonological errors - ANSWER>> consistent error patterns, general normal development Errors are generally distortions - ANSWER>> dysarthria Errors include substitutions, omissions, additions and repetitions, frequently includes simplification of word forms. Tendency for omissions in initial position. Tendency to centralize vowels to a "schwaa" - ANSWER>> apraxia Errors may include substitutions, omissions, distortions, etc. Omissions in final position more likely than initial position. Vowel distortions not as common. - ANSWER>> phonological errors Voice quality may be hoarse, harsh, hypernasal, etc. depending on type of dysarthria
awareness intervention Collaboration between SLP and classroom teachers can cause confusion regarding the best way to foster children's phonological awareness abilities. True False - ANSWER>> false Phonological awareness intervention is best delivered in small group settings. True False - ANSWER>> false Working on phonological awareness is helpful for reading skills, but working on speech sound production alone will also improve phonological awareness skills. True False - ANSWER>> true Children with speech sound disorders and comorbid language impairments are at higher risk for literacy difficulties than children with isolated speech sound disorders.
True False - ANSWER>> true An alliteration activity that requires children to pay attention to the initial phoneme in the word, produce the initial phoneme in the word correctly, and identify the letter that corresponds to the phoneme is a good example of phonological awareness treatment for children with SSD. True False - ANSWER>> true when a child generalizes the correct production of the /s/ sound with an auditory model to correct production of the /s/ sound with a picture cue that is called - ANSWER>> stimulus generalization a common organizational sequence for therapy is (in correct order) - ANSWER>> antecedent event, response consequent event for children with multiple phoneme errors the preferred goal attack strategy is:
mastery and retention of the skills - ANSWER>> false
