Happy National Book Week! 📖💚

Books are fundamental to our children’s development of language and speech, so it is important that we celebrate the authors and illustrators that are responsible for creating them.

Could your child benefit from an assessment with a speech pathologist? 💬

As a parent, you may sometimes wonder whether your child’s speech and language development is progressing as expected.

If you notice your child is demonstrating the signs listed above, it may be helpful to seek advice from a speech pathologist here at SLLC.

Every child develops at their own pace, and one sign alone doesn’t necessarily mean there is a problem.

However, if you have concerns, a speech pathology assessment can provide helpful information about your child’s communication skills and whether support may be beneficial.

💛 Early intervention is important and can help give children the support they need to communicate with confidence.

If you have concerns about your child’s speech or language development, get in touch with our clinic to find out more about an assessment.

Speech or language - which is it? 🗣️💬
Many parents use the terms speech & language to mean the same thing, but they’re actually different.

Knowing the difference can help you better understand your child’s communication and recognise when they may benefit from extra support.

Swipe through to learn more, and if you have any questions about your child’s communication, we’d love to help. 💙

“Articulation” is how we use our articulators (tongue, jaw, vocal tract and lips) to make speech sounds.

“Voice” is how we use our vocal folds & breath to make different sounds (high/low pitched or loud/soft volume).

“Fluency” is the smooth, easy and continuous flow of talking (without hesitation or stops)

“Expressive language” is the ability to use language rules to communicate our thoughts by either using words & sentences or through nonverbal actions.
This includes asking questions, naming objects, and using gestures and facial expressions.

“Receptive language” is the ability to understand & comprehend language when it is spoken to us or read in a book.
This includes following directions, understanding what gestures mean, answering questions, identifying objects and pictures, and reading comprehension.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding your child’s speech and/or language. Please contact us, we would love to help!
