Santino was seen for speech/language therapy. He reportedly has been up since the middle of the night and had difficulty falling back asleep. He had intermittent spurts of being tired and laying on the rug while he was "taking breaks" but overall he did pretty well. We targeted language/auditory comprehension with a book activity by request. Verbs were targeted in Both structured and unstructured settings. Santino has done well with specific verb cards we have been working on however I'm working on generalizing the skill into real time events. For example, on a card with a child playing soccer - he will say "kicking ball", however when we're outside and is asked "what are they doing?", there is often time no response or will respond with the noun "ball". This of course is a more abstract concept that will take time to carry over and generalize. Santino has been requesting with " ____ yes". Moderate cues are used to request using I want + verb + object/desired activity. We interacted with peers and targeted language goals on the play ground for approximately 10 minutes. Santino has been enjoying the play ground again, being quite brave climbing on new equipment and up slides. Auditory bombardment during this play is beneficial. Santino required cues to answer safety questions today (name, live). Following directions to complete functional things like changing diaper and washing hands required cues as well.
