  1. Speech and Language Therapy training Speech sounds Presented by: Fiona Davies / Emma Carvell

  2. Terminology • Phonology • The study of how sounds are organised and used in natural languages • Articulation • The formation of clear and distinct sounds in speech

  3. Speaking is complex! Say the word ‘aeroplane’ and ‘yoghurt’ slowly. While you are doing so, think about: what your tongue is doing. How many movements does it make? how many different positions do you find it in?

  4. Phonological Development Children have to learn: to discriminate between different sounds in the language they hear (phonological awareness) to produce different sounds (articulation) stress, pitch and intonation (prosody)

  5. Speech Sound Development Age at which 90% of children have acquired the sounds and vowels 3 years m, b, p, h, w plus vowel sounds 4 years k, g, t, d, n, ng, f 5 years s, z, l, v, y, th, sh, ch 6 years r, j Law et al (2000)

  6. Speech Sound Development Sounds to expect by the time children enter.... F1 – m,b,p,h,w,t,d,n vowels F2 – k,g,f (~ 3),s (~ 3 ½ ),l (~ 4 ½ ) Yr 1 – s blends ( ~ 4 ½ - 5) Yr 2 – sh, ch, j (~ 5 ½ ) Yr 3 – r (~ 7yr) Yr 4+ – th

  7. Sounds can be categorised into: Loud/Quiet - voiced/voiceless - sounds come in pairs Long/Short - fricatives/plosives Front/Back - place of articulation Also consider position in words: initial, final, medial sounds.

  8. Phonological Processes Process Example Initial voicing, final devoicing Pig – ‘bik’ Delete final consonant(s) Fish – ‘fi’ Use same consonant throughout wordButterfly – ‘tutati’ ‘Stopping’ long sounds to short Sun – ‘dun’ Make ‘back of the mouth’ sounds at the front Car – ‘tar’ Reduce clusters of consonants to make one consonant Star – ‘tar’

  9. Speech sound quiz!

  10. Psycholinguistic model of speech processing

  11. What can you do to help? Be face to face when communicating and also get down to the level of the child Reduce background noise so that the child can hear you and you can hear the child Develop listening and attention skills, generally and also specific to sounds Encourage children to identify sounds in words through literacy Develop phonological skills e.g. rhyme Model correct productions back to child Sounds listening programme
