Guest guest Posted June 30, 2001 Report Share Posted June 30, 2001 Hello fellow listers! I am new to this group (joined it today as a matter of fact). I have a 6 years old daughter. She is autistic. We are doing traditional Lovaas ABA at home. She is some-what verbal. She can request what she wants but has no spontaneous speech otherwise. She can repeat almost anything but is very soft spoken and her speech is not clear. Very often nobody can understand what she is asking and it is causing a big frustration on both parts. I would like to work more on her speech. Where do I start? I have read some of the messages but do not understand some of the terminology. What method shall I use? What resources are available? What programs are available to help develop spontaneous speech? What can I do to help her combine words. She knows about 300 words, 10 colors, 9 shapes, some basic attributes, numbers from 0 to 20 and all alphabet. I think she has enough components to start. What to do to help her combine them together and make her talk loud and clear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
