Lesson Outline
Santino was greeted by the SLP as he completed his previous session. He transitioned nicely to the chair at the table. He assisted with closing the computer and putting away his iPad. When given a choice of bubbles and train set, he verbally requested trains. An oral motor tool (Z-vibe) was introduced without vibration initially and then turned on. Santino turned to the vibration on his cheek showing interest. When SLP tapped to his lips, he opened for it to be put in his mouth however quickly closed his lips after a few seconds of intra oral stimulation. He independently rubbed on his lips and began to laugh. With the blue chewy tube, he was bending it and visually interested, he did not place it in his mouth despite visual models and prompting. Santino and SLP began building train track as he assisted with taking the crackers out of the package with ease. He immediately tapped to his lips and put them in the "all done bowl". He refused further interaction (i.e. tapping to teeth, pretend brushing teeth, licking, tapping to tongue, or licking crumbs off his lips). With Veggie Straws, he watched SLP play with the straw, placing it between lips and blowing air/napkin across the table. He crushed into crumbs with his fingers, immediately wiping off the crumbs. While placing the trains on the track (requesting each one verbally - "I want yellow train"), SLP tapped crumbs of Veggie Straws on his lips with vibration on and Santino demonstrated reduced aversion. He began to rub his lips together and eventually lick the crumbs off with his tongue tip. He did not grimace nor show signs of distress. We did this 10x. This is improvement, as Santino appeared to stop and consciously decide to lick his lips despite possible anxiety about the food being on his lips. Overall, his interaction with the food was less aversive today. He was happy throughout the session. Santino assisted in clean up and at that time, Mom picked Santino up from the classroom. Session was briefly discussed with Mom. Great session, I will see him Monday!
