Games for speech therapy exercises

Sort:

Speech therapy is the science of formation, improvement and elimination of speech disorders. It covers both general methods of communication and all issues related to the identification and elimination of speech defects. It combines many disciplines: psychology, pedagogy, linguistics and medicine. A speech therapist deals with the diagnosis and treatment of speech disorders.

When should you use the help of a specialist?
Each child is individual and begins to speak at an individual time. However, if over time:

speaks indistinctly
does not respond to our commands or his name,
does not make contact with the eyes,
during a conversation, he sticks his tongue between his teeth
excessive salivation
has fits of laughter or anger that are completely inappropriate to the situation
sleeps with his mouth open
... for your own peace of mind, you should go to a speech therapist.

Speech therapy
There is no single scheme of therapy, it is selected individually for the child. The most important thing is to talk with the parents, and then observe the patient during the main activities and check the hearing. An appropriate plan of activities, speech therapy exercises and games can minimize or completely eliminate language disorders.

If the therapy is not continued at home according to the exercises recommended by the speech therapist, it will never bring results. The intended goals will be achieved only when we do the other half of the work alone with the child. Speech therapy games, which allow you to combine the pleasant with the useful, are very helpful in such classes. There is no better way to learn than to have fun. The choice of training aids is really huge and everyone will find something for themselves.

It should be remembered that the later the problem is noticed, the longer the speech therapy exercises and the entire therapy will be.
