In LANGUAGE THERAPY we work on improving....

1.Receptive Language- receiving (understanding) what is spoken to you.                                                             

2. Expressive Language- formulating thoughts and speaking them verbally.

These areas mostly include:                                   

*Vocabulary- knowledge and use of spoken words!

 *Syntax -  Speaking using correct words in correct order and combination of words in phrases and sentences.                                                           

*Morphology- Speaking using correct word endings to convey meaning. Word beginnings, Prefixes, also convey meaning!                                                   

*Listening Comprehsion- Listening to spoken language and responding appropriately as in answering wh questions or following directions or understanding figurative language.

3. Pragmatic Language - engaging using language socially with peers.  

4. Hearing - teaching students to make optimal use of the hearing they have (when there is a loss), sign language, or use of AAC devices may also be used.
