Promoting Emerging Speech in Birth to 3 Year-Old Hearing-Impaired Children.

Cole, Elizabeth B.

Volta Review, v94 n5 p63-77 Nov 1992

This discussion of speech development in infants and toddlers with hearing impairments considers selection and ordering of speech targets; the place of audition in speech teaching; and teaching methods for specific speech elements. Guidelines include helping caregivers internalize strategies to help the child use residual hearing and utilizing an "embellished informal" teaching approach. (DB)
