Slide6

Purpose of the School age Speech and Language Specialty Clinic

Purpose of services is to facilitate each child’s ability to functionally communicate in all environments and successfully participate in grade level/age-appropriate school and home activities.

Slide7

Who We Will Serve:

Population: The clinic will serve children who are kindergarten through 12th grade with communication disorders specific to speech, language, cognition and hearing loss.

Deficits include:

Speech sounds/articulation, language (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics/social skills) and hearing loss.

Slide8

Service delivery models:

In UO Speech Language Hearing Center (UOSLHC) and at Maple Elementary

Individual & group sessions (or a mix) to best support individual needs.

Slide9

What is a Communication Disorder?

An impairment in the ability to receive, send, process and comprehend concepts or verbal, nonverbal and graphic symbol systems.It may affect individual’s abilities to speak, read, write, process information or interact socially.

Slide10

What do SLPs do who provide service for school-age children?

1. Speech production2. Language3. Cognition – not specific to head injury/TBI4. Feeding and Swallowing5. Fluency6. Voice7. Resonance8.

Auditory habilitation/rehabilitation

Slide11

What is a Speech Disorder?An impairment of articulation, speech sounds, fluency, or voice

Slide12

What is a Speech Sound/Articulation Disorder?An atypical production of speech sounds characterized by

Substitutions (tool/cool, wash/watch)Omissions (sip/slip, boo/book)Additions/Distortions (lisps, wabbit/rabbit)This disorder may affect intelligibility.Significant speech sound disorders impact a child’s self-esteem, peer relationships and ability to read, spell and write accurately.

Slide13

What is a Language Disorder?A language disorder is impaired comprehension, and or use of spoken, written and/or other symbol systems.

The disorder may involve in any combinationthe form of language (phonology, morphology, syntax);the content of language (semantics); and/orthe function of language in communication (pragmatics/social).

Slide14

What are the different types of language disorders?

PhonologyMorphologySyntaxSemanticsPragmatics/Social Language

Slide15

Phonology

Study and use of individual sound units in a language and the rules by which they are combined and recombined to create larger language units. Phonemes are the unit of sound such as /s/ or /b/ , they do not convey meaning. Phonemes alter meaning of words when combined (e.g., sat to bat).

Slide16

Phonological Deficits

Frequently appear as articulation disorders.Child omits a consonant: “oo” for “too”Child substitutes one consonant:

wabbit

for rabbit

Discrimination: child hears

go get the nail

instead of “mail”

Slide17

Morphology

Study and use of morphemes, the smallest units of language that have meaning.A morpheme is a group of sounds that refers to a particular object, idea, or action.Roots can stand alone (e.g., car, teach, tall)Affixes are bound such as prefixes and suffixes and when attached to root words change the meaning of the words (e.g., cars, teacher, tallest)

Slide18

Morphological Deficits

Elementary aged: may not use appropriate inflectional endings in their speech (e.g.,“He walk” or “Mommy coat

).

Middle school: lack irregular past tense or irregular plurals (e.g.,

drived

for drove or mans for men).

Be aware of

cultural dialects

”: “John cousin

, “I have two book”

Slide19

Syntax

Study of the rules by which words are organized into phrases or sentences in a particular language. Referred to as the grammar of the language and allows for more complex expression of thoughts and ideas by making references to past and future events (This is extensively covered in Dr. Nippold’s class).

Slide20

Syntactic Deficits

Lack the length or syntactic complexity (e.g., “Where Daddy go?”). Problems comprehending sentences that express relationship between direct or indirect objects. Difficulty with wh questions.

Slide21

Semantics

The larger meaning component of language. More than single words, includes complex use of vocabulary, including structures such as word categories, word relationships, synonyms, antonyms, figurative language, ambiguities, and absurdities. Classes of words (e.g., pronouns, nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, articles, conjunctions, etc.) Struggle with understanding or using temporal or spatial prepositions (impact on following directions or impacting reading comprehension)

Slide22

Semantic Deficits

Limited vocabulary especially in adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, or pronouns. Longer response time in selecting vocabulary words. Fail to perceive subtle changes in word meaning: incomplete understanding and misinterpretations. Struggle with interpreting comments or written language that uses inferencing and figurative language.

Slide23

Pragmatics

Knowledge and ability to use language functionally in social or interactive situations. Integrates all the other language skills, but also requires knowledge and use of rule governing the use of language in social context.

Slide24

Pragmatic Deficits

Problems understanding indirect requests (e.g., may say yes when asked “Must you play the piano?”). May enter conversations in a socially unacceptable fashion or fail to take turns talking. Difficulty staying on topic.

Slide25

What are Cognitive Disorders?Cognitive disorders refers to difficulties with:

AttentionMemoryProblem solvingExecutive functioningThese may be due to a syndrome, birth defect or traumatic brain injury (TBI),The TBI may be the result of concussions or other head injuries.

Slide26

What is Auditory Habilitation/Rehabilitation?Working on speech, language, listening and communication skills that are affected by hearing loss, deafness.

Slide27

Assessment and Data Collection

Informal vs. Formal Speech, Language, & Social Skills Baseline Assessment Criterion-Based Assessment v. Norm-Referenced Standardized Assessments.

Data Collection for Both Approaches

See slides on

infoCDS

and information on data collection methods.

Slide28

Formal Norm-Referenced Standardized Assessment

Typically administered for a new client or a client who has not been formally evaluated over the last 1.5-2 years OR…. If there is another concern that you are exploring.

Parent / Client Interview

Include all HEDCO documents if they have not been completed (Permission to Evaluate & Serve and Release of Information).

See example documents on

infoCDS

Standardized Norm-Referenced Testing

Speech Sounds, Language, and Social Communication

Discuss New Tests Ordered

Additional Dynamic Assessment to identify stimulability or levels of cuing support

Language / Conversational Sampling

Oral Mechanism Evaluation

Hearing Screening

Complete an Evaluation Report (Template and Example on

infoCDS

)

Determine if the client meets criteria for a diagnosis (ICD-10 Code), requires services, and the focus of service.

Slide29

Where to Start and What to Focus On Using a Criterion-Based Assessment

For returning clients, it’s recommended to use the previous ITPs and the noted recommendations as a guide to where to begin developing your clinical question, which will direct your focus for developing a criterion-based assessment.

Discuss some examples including clients who met their objective criteria last term.

Once you identify a target to probe, your first attempt to elicit a client’s ability to complete a task should be done without cues or prompting. This provides you data regarding a client’s “Zone of Actual Development”.

If the client does not perform well without cuing, it is then appropriate to continue exploring this target using more of a Dynamic Assessment approach to identify the levels of cuing the client requires (or the level of stimulability) to identify their “Zone of Proximal Development”.

Use enough opportunities to allow you to identify a pattern of productions that can be ruled out as random guessing. Obtaining a count of 5-10 productions should provide you with enough data (depending on the target).

What are you tracking? Correct v. Incorrect productions, levels of cuing, automaticity, distractibility, etc.

Slide30

Criterion-Based Assessment

A formative assessment approach typically used during intermittent time frames to gauge changes in treatment progress (e.g., returning clients following a break, post assessment at the end of a term).

Identifying what the client can and cannot do compared to a predefined criterion (Not comparing to a sample of the population).

These tests help answer the question, “How does my client’s performance compare to an expected level of performance?”

They can be used to establish a baseline

May continue as needed throughout the term to determine progress/assess effectiveness/look for new goal(s)

Completed at the end of the term to show progress

Slide31

All Returning Clients: Components of an Informal Assessment

Parent Interview: Identify any updated information, any changes, observing any transfer and generalization, current concerns and priorities.Updated HEDCO documentsUpdated information on Family, Home, Medical, and School

Identify previous targets that have not not been met (or just recently met criteria)

Use a an informal criterion-based developed assessment to establish current baseline and/or progress or regression

Conduct a qualitative language / conversational sample

If you need hearing screening hours, all of your clients will get a hearing screening

Track your data

Identify the priority for the term (based upon your data and parent’s request)

Target 2

3 long-term goals for the term

* Don’t reinvent the wheel. Use the recommendations by the previous clinician and the previous ITPs to help you prioritize.

Slide32

Parent Interviews

Mock parent interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYZkDVijFKc Why the parent interview is so important: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAjtKxy0U00

Slide33

Informal Tests of Phonology

Analyze student’s production of phonemes in single words and/or phrases or sentences Choose target sounds based upon previous reports, observations, or parent report. Probe target sounds in different positions (e.g., initial, medial, final, blends). When considering the target word, think about the complexity (e.g., cognates, target sound in multiple positions, syllabication)

Provide prompts –

Tell me about your weekend for 3-minute sample, count correct and incorrect phonemes.

Following the informal assessment, you can then conduct a stimulability test (i.e., a form of Dynamic Assessment)

Slide34

Informal Test of Morphology

Determine mastery level of each morpheme in a hierarchy (Brown, 1973).ing: present a picture of girls playing and say “The girls like to play. Here they are ________.”

Student adds missing word.

Show a series of 20 action pictures and ask student what they are doing.

Accuracy below 90% - morpheme has not been mastered

Slide35

Informal Tests of Syntax

Expressive Syntax: Engage in a conversation or have the student provide a narrative about a topic: Analyzing student’s spontaneous speech and note the syntactical errors. Sentence Repetition: Clinician states a sentence with a certain syntactical structure and the student repeats it. Note any errors.

Slide36

Informal Tests of Semantics

Logical relationships: Cause-and-effect, and verbal problem solving: Structured picture cards or literature-basedVerbal opposites: Picture cards of 40 pairs of opposites. Student sorts them into opposites.Word categories: Clinician says a word and student says as many words in the same category. Clinician provides picture cards and student puts them into proper categories

Semantic relationships

: Asking client questions or using picture cards to elicit complex language relationships: Synonyms, antonyms, figurative language, ambiguities, absurdities.

Slide37

Informal Test of Pragmatics

Analyze spontaneous speech and behavior (use of reviewing a videotape tape can be helpful) Classify pragmatic functions Measure for appropriate loudness, talking at inappropriate times, interrupting the speaker, and using indirect requests, topic maintenance, conversational skills, perseverative behaviors, time-on- task, etc.

Slide38

Assessment and Intervention Approaches

Resources on infoCDS: https://coe.uoregon.edu/cds/

Slide39

Resources to Assist with Your 1st

Session Review information on infoCDS regarding assessment and intervention. Review sections in your textbooks for language disorders and speech sound disorders.

I also have many additional books.

Review posted materials on

infoCDS

regarding data collection strategies.

Review posted materials on

infoCDS

regarding behavior management techniques.

Slide40

Preparing for 1st Session

If you haven’t contacted your client to confirm clinic sessions, please do that ASAP If you have a returning client, I would encourage you to reach out to the previous clinician (if they are on campus) and to review previous video. If you have questions about this, please let me know. Have your lesson plan reviewed by your supervisor and bring with you during your session

Collect and practice with any informal assessment material

Create any needed visual schedules for your lesson

Bring a back-up activity

Jut in case

Know how to record your session & maybe have a separate your recorder

Have your data collection system developed

Have all documents for parent to sign - this can be done while you are working with the client. Use the File Review Checklist to help you organize the documents.

Client Cancellations or Need to Reschedule Days and Times: What to do !

Slide41

Supervision and Feedback

Supervisors are required to supervise 50% of your evaluation time and 25% of your treatment time. You will likely receive written feedback following each clinical session with the amount of time that was observed by your supervisor. These are typically emailed to you following a session (or within 24 hours). I use the supervisor feedback form posted on infoCDS. However, your supervisor may have a different format. I would recommend checking with them to identify how clinical feedback will be provided.

Slide42

Session Feedback from Supervisor

Written Verbal* This may look different for different supervisors, so please talk with them regarding their approach.

Slide43

When reviewing your client files, see if there are any updated forms that may need to be collected during your first parent meeting. This information can be identified within the

File Review Checklist and the documents that follow.

Slide44

RDS File Conventions

Slide45

What’s Up Next

You will complete your CHARTR and lesson plans and have it posted on RDS by 7pm on Friday. Myself, or the other supervisors, will be available to answer Qs. Again, contact our families and confirm dates and times.

Check Titanium Schedule for your room assignments for your client

Review and practice the video recording technology for your session.

Continue to review the clinic calendar as your operating checklist

Review previous video sessions of your client for ideas and support

Use

infoCDS

to leverage resources, documents, and examples

I will have a schedule posted outside of my door to schedule individual

Hearing Screenings Training and Schedule.

The schedule may fluid during start up based upon the OSHA conference and school schedules.

Be prepared to discuss your client and your initial plan during the next group meeting. An outline will be posted

CHARTR Questions

You only need to complete sections 1-3 for this Friday. Sections 4-5 will be completed by the end of week 3.

Slide50

SOAP Notes

* To be completed and posted at least 24 hours following your session What is a SOAP Note? A form of documentation, typically used in the medical field, as a form of communication and summary of any form of evaluation or treatment performed with a client. SOAP Stands For:Subjective: Subjective and non-measurable information that may come from the client or caregiver’s point of view. However, it could also explain certain behaviors observed during a session

which will be addressed in the “A” section.

Objective:

This section contains measurable finding

Your raw data. For your first assessment session, you may note that you performed a certain assessment, and whether it was completed, and refer to the ITP for specific results.

Assessment (analysis):

This is a synthesis of your information from your “S” and “O” section. You do not reiterate the raw data. Here you would note what might have influenced the data and student performance (e.g., fatigued, level of cuing, etc.)

Plan: Note your recommended plan of action for your next session (bullet points are fine). This will direct you in crafting your next lesson plan* See Slides Posted on infoCDS

under Group Meetings

Slide51

ITPs

Individual Treatment Plans Use the most recent ITP for your client located in RDS as a possible template and then make updated changes See the example posted on infoCDS that will reflect the information that you should include in your ITP. Your draft is due week 3 – primarily so you have your LTGs and STOs mapped out.

The final draft will go to the parents at the end of the term.
