Description
This
seminar is designed for speech language pathologists and
occupational therapists who have an interest in building
a partnership to enhance language development, communication,
interaction, organized behavior, learning, joint attention,
and modulation using sensory integration principles.
For many years, occupational therapists and speech language
pathologists have recognized the existence of a relationship
between sensory motor function and the development of speech
and language in children. Lectures, slides, experiential
labs and videotapes of intervention of children ages birth
through school age will be utilized to demonstrate the
treatment principles and outcomes. The strategies presented
will emphasize an integrated approach for the OT and SLP
to enhance treatment effectiveness with infants and children
diagnosed with developmental delays, autism. attention
deficit disorders, language delays, etc.
Objectives: Participants will be able to
1. Optimize current treatment environments.
2. Recognize arousal states and design strategies to bring
children to a state of readiness and interest for communication,
interaction, learning and fun.
3. Outline the relationship between sensory processing
and the development of interaction and communication skills.
4. Describe the relationships between sensory processing,
non-verbal communication and speech and language development.
5. Identify the significant aspects of speech sound production
that relate to sensory integration, respiratory support,
oral apraxia and oral motor function.
