Grades PreK-5

A Functional Motor Programming Approach for Children with Developmental Verbal Apraxia

By Kathleen E. Dauer, Sandra S. Irwin, and Sandra R. Schippits

Increase your children's speech and articulation abilities. Using this manual, you can help children who are nonverbal or highly unintelligible due to developmental verbal apraxia and other articulation, phonological, or motor speech disorders.

Therapy practice is structured so that syllable structures gradually increase in length and complexity. Emphasis is placed on teaching functional spoken language through imitation and reinforced with signs and pictures illustrated in the manual. The authors use a Functional Motor Programming Approach to therapy because it is undertaken in a naturalistic and practical environment.

With this resource, you'll receive:

  • 280 pages of reproducible picture stimuli organized by syllable structure, target sound, and type of transition
  • Hierarchical therapy structure outlined in a Therapy Progression Chart
  • Informative handouts to copy and give to parents
  • Suggestions for teaching specific language structures while expanding syllable structure
