Richard was greeted following lunch/recess outside. He just came in from playing tag with his classmates outside. I believed it was beneficial for him to come in from moving his body and relieving some energy he may have built up throughout the day. It has been an observation of mine the last two days that Richard has appeared somewhat disorganized with his thoughts and requires more redirection to not only conversation but to each task during therapy. This was reported by another teacher as well. Richard may benefit from a stationary chair, rather than a chair with wheels to avoid distraction. The first portion of therapy session focused on event recall, and discussing what our objectives and goals of speech therapy are for the year. We discussed new hobbies and interests for rapport establishment all while targeting rate of speech and /s/ in conversation. When cued, Richard does slow his speech and over articulate his /s/ however very frequent cues are required at this time. In addition, Richard demonstrates partial word deletion with multisyllabic words (i.e. with the word "teleport", he said "te-port") he was asked to repeat himself two times until it became clear. A new sound was introduced today, /th/ (both voiced and voiceless) in all positions of the word He achieved the following accuracy: initial position with a model 40%, medial position with a model 30%, and final position with a model 20%. He did discriminate between correct and incorrect productions auditory. He intermittently self corrected. Overall, it was a relatively productive session. I will continue monitoring his attention, pragmatics and language skills.
