Speech and Language Disorders by Nayoung Lee https://padlet.com/nlee241/z7zbeoewgs6q Made with panache en-us 2020-03-05 18:51:41 UTC 2025-05-19 11:56:54 UTC hello@padlet.com Combating negative stereotypes nlee241 https://padlet.com/nlee241/z7zbeoewgs6q/wish/455306763 Some negative terms used to describe students with communication disorders: shy, anxious, stubborn, aggressive, language delayed, frustrated, immature, unintelligent, unmotivated, dysfluent, disruptive, confused. These terms promote stereotyped thinking and negative impressions.
We need to be reminded that we need to look carefully at the capabilities of students with speech and language problems and remember the great diversity that can be hidden under a single label.
Teachers should not lower their expectations of the potential and capability of learners.

Speech impairments are distracting to the listener and can negatively affect the communication process." (Bryant et al, 2020)]]> 2020-03-05 19:05:48 UTC https://padlet.com/nlee241/z7zbeoewgs6q/wish/455318084 Types of communication disorders nlee241 https://padlet.com/nlee241/z7zbeoewgs6q/wish/455340178 Both types of communication disorders—speech impairments and language impairments— can be further subdivided. The three types of speech impairments follow:
1. Articulation problems: The process of producing speech sounds is flawed, and resulting speech sounds are incorrect. 
2. Fluency problems: Hesitations or repetitions interrupt the flow of speech. Stuttering is one type of fluency problem. 
3. Voice problems: The voice is unusual in pitch or loudness given the age and gender of the individual.

  • not say sounds clearly
  • have a hoarse or raspy voice
  • repeat sounds or pause when speaking, called stuttering
Language is the words we use to share ideas and get what we want. A person with a language disorder may have problems:
  • understanding
  • talking
  • reading
  • writing

Some strategies for expressive language disorder:
1. Use visuals to support expressive language skills.
2. Be patient when the student is speaking.
3. Help build the student’s vocabulary by creating opportunities for focusing on language processing skills.

Some strategies for receptive language disorder:
1. Keep directions short and simple.
2. Include visuals when giving instructions.
3. Break tasks and assignments into short, easy-to-manage steps.]]> 2020-03-05 19:56:34 UTC https://padlet.com/nlee241/z7zbeoewgs6q/wish/455359989 5 Tips nlee241 https://padlet.com/nlee241/z7zbeoewgs6q/wish/455365187 1. Teach how to read body language, expressions, and sign language
