This usually prompts parents to have the child evaluated by a professional. Many times, the first step in evaluation is having a child's hearing checked. This is to ensure the speech impairment is not actually a hearing impairment that is interfering with language development. Some examples of commonly used assessments are the CELF-5, PLS-5 English, Bayley-III, and GFTA-3. These assessments monitor things like articulation of consonant sounds, language development, and communication skills in many contexts. ]]> 2021-10-19 00:45:11 UTC https://padlet.com/reaganorwig/vm2f8i26h0ecmcr/wish/1825625913 reaganorwig https://padlet.com/reaganorwig/vm2f8i26h0ecmcr/wish/1825631790 2021-10-19 00:47:50 UTC https://padlet.com/reaganorwig/vm2f8i26h0ecmcr/wish/1825631790 reaganorwig https://padlet.com/reaganorwig/vm2f8i26h0ecmcr/wish/1825632608 2021-10-19 00:48:12 UTC https://padlet.com/reaganorwig/vm2f8i26h0ecmcr/wish/1825632608 Education for SLI Students reaganorwig https://padlet.com/reaganorwig/vm2f8i26h0ecmcr/wish/1825637509 Students will receive education from a multi-disciplinary team including general education teachers, speech-language pathologists, and special education teachers.
