Home Practice Ideas
Home practice is a critical component of every child’s success in speech and language therapy. Research from the American Speech-Language Hearing Association indicates that children who practice their speech and language skills at home exhibit faster acquisition of targets and greater generalization.
My goal as an SLP is to help your child be as independent as possible with their speech and language skills! You can think of me as a speech/language coach. Like a coach, I can only teach the initial skills and provide feedback. Your child must practice these skills daily until they are mastered.
Home practice is especially important during breaks. Even just one week of limited practice with a skill can result in learning loss.
