• Homework Reminders:
     
    Speech practice is like riding a bike.  Practice, practice, practice and once you get it, it is automatic!!!!!
     
    Our expectation is to practice saying homework speech sounds every day for 10 minutes. 
     
    Speech Practice Leveling:
    1. sound only
    2. word level
    3. phrase level (short sentence repeated)
    4. sentence level (novel sentences)
    5. reading level
    6. conversation
     
    Levels are progressive.  Students typically move up levels when they have mastered the previous level for 2-3 sessions.
