Chapter 1 in full: Managing and Implementing Therapeutic Speech Plans
29% of the exam, about 26 questions. These are its key points, as in the guide.
- A report includes student details, referral reason, history, tools, results, interpretation and recommendations.
- Scores are interpreted against age norms and by the disorder's effect on communication and learning.
- Intelligibility is the share of the child's speech a listener understands, and a key criterion for prioritising goals.
The rest of chapter 1, on this page
- Sounds that develop early or respond to stimulation are targeted before late-developing sounds.
- An individual plan has long-term goals and short-term objectives leading to them.
- A good goal states the behaviour, conditions and mastery criterion (such as 80% across 3 sessions).
- Auditory training teaches the child to hear the difference between correct and incorrect sound.
- Prompts are faded gradually until the child responds independently.
- For stuttering, techniques include easy onset, slowed speech and reducing tension.
- For voice disorders, therapy includes vocal hygiene: avoiding shouting and staying hydrated.
- For language disorders, modelling, expansion (extending the child's utterance) and recasting are used.
- Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) is considered when functional speech is absent.
- Prognosis depends on age, severity, hearing, intelligence, family support and therapy attendance.
- The plan is reviewed periodically with data and adjusted if there is no progress.
- Training the family in short, regular home activities speeds generalisation.
Common mistakes in this chapter
- Starting with the hardest sounds instead of those affecting intelligibility where the child can succeed.
- Writing vague, unmeasurable goals such as "improves speech."
- Moving to conversation before mastering words and sentences.
- Neglecting generalisation outside the therapy room.
- Writing a report full of jargon the family cannot understand.
