This book covers the specific problems faced by the speech impaired in dealing with social aspects of communication, and the information and exercises in the book will provide the basis from which therapists can develop their own creative solutions for teaching social skills to the speech impaired. The major part of the book deals with the concept of social skills training, the role of the therapist, assessment planning and follow-up; the remainder consists of exercises to be carried out by the therapist for patients with specific deficiencies. This second edition has been fully revised and updated to take account of recent developments in the field.(Keywords: Speech-Language Pathology, Social Skills, Speech, Speech Impaired)

Assessment and Therapy for Young Dysfluent Children: Family Interaction

Reference

Words, Language & Grammar

This book provides essential information and guidance about stammering for those working in educational settings. The highly experienced team of authors demonstrates how early intervention is essential if children who stammer are to have the best chance of recovery; the practical strategies that can help with children's oral participation in class, particulary in the light of recent innovations such as the literacy hour and national numeracy strategy; the ways in which teachers can address the educational and social implications of stammering, and reverse the risk of underachieving if these children become isolated, anxious, withdrawn or disruptive; how to influence the climate in schools so that children who stammer are better understood and can be helped to their full potential; and how to prepare pupils for exams, particularly in secondary schools where they may be taking oral examinations. Throughout the text, reference is made to new government initiatives where appropriate, and each chapter includes case studies, practical tasks and activities that can be used in the school setting.
