Speech-sound disorders involve difficulties producing speech sounds correctly, affecting a child’s clarity and intelligibility. These can include articulation disorders (trouble making certain sounds) and phonological disorders (patterns of sound errors).
Concerns:
- Mispronouncing sounds (e.g., “wabbit” for “rabbit”).
- Omitting or substituting sounds in words.
- Difficulty being understood by peers or adults, which can affect social interaction.
How We Can Help:
- Targeted exercises to improve sound production and clarity.
- Visual and auditory cues to support learning correct pronunciation.
- Structured activities to generalize skills into everyday communication.
