CHYS 2P35 Lecture Notes - Speech Disorder, Phonological Awareness, Temporal Lobe
Document Summary
The environment where the child learns best, mainstreaming and integration is something we need to think about. Phonology: knowledge of basic sounds ad sound combinations ba-da. Semantics: meaning; colourless green ideas sleep furiously structurally correct, but doesn"t make any sense. Pragmatics: social use, how we use the language in a social context. Phonological awareness: understanding, and used for basic learning skills. Challenges: learning speech sounds, organizing sounds for speech, reading and spelling, rate of speech, articulation delays, l, r,s,z,th,ch. They are at risk to have other disorders. Etiology: posterior left hemisphere (temporal lobe) hypo-activation in phonological problems. Visual or auditory input, then placed in sensory storage, but we are not aware of that. A picture will be stored in visual spatial scratch pad, auditory will be stored in the phonological loop. The children with these disorders, are having hard time with the phonological loop.
