Initial Speech Therapy Session
Lesson Outline
Richard gave a warm greeting and gave a quick orientation of the room. While chatting creating legos, Richard shared a lot about his favorite things and provided a nice informal speech sample. He was very excited to talk and share stories of his lego creation. Richard did not want to finish legos and said he needed 1 more minute. When the iPhone timer went off, he independently started cleaning up, only after a picture was taken of his lego. He remembered the directions from the beginning of the session to put used legos into a separate bag for cleaning. We then played a robot building game. During the game, we did an informal assessment of his phonological awareness skills with some of the letters/words used in the game. He was quick to say, "I don't know." With a little guidance, we "we figured it out together." The game also required some executive functioning skills (organizing, memory, planning, and sequencing). Richard demonstrated confidence in all areas. The session was moved outside to allow Richard to remove his mask to further assess speech production. Based on informal assessment, Richard demonstrated difficulty with /s/ sounds, s blends, multisyllabic words (he dropped a syllable), and other ending sounds. Many of the errors were inconsistent, showing that they are emerging. He was able to imitate every sound of concern, with a model and visual feedback (mirror). Discussed session with Mrs. Lazzara and suggested that 5 days a week might not be necessary. However, Mrs. Lazzara wants to be proactive and endorsed supporting the other areas of concern(outlined in the neuropsych eval) during sessions. She was happy to hear that both SLPs will be collaborating on Richard's plan of treatment.
