%u00a9 Elklan Training Limited 2023 207Elklan. Speech and Language Support for 3-5sS99.7.0 SUPPORTING CHILDREN WITH SPECIFIC SPEECH SOUND DIFFICULTIES(Slide 274)%u2022 Finally let us think about how to support children with specific speech sound difficulties.%u2022 The aim of the slide is just to raise awareness of the different levels and that a child needs to be competent, for example, at word level, before moving onto sentence level.%u2022 Encourage pre-school practitioners to contact SaLTs so that they know the level that the child is at and therefore have realistic expectations and know how/what to reinforce.%u2022 I know that some learners will be frustrated that details re phonology therapy are not included but there simply isn%u2019t time to do this justice. For those working with over 4s the additional course %u2018Supporting Children with Unclear Speech%u2019 is really useful. It can be delivered over 2%u00bd days and an e-learning course is available.%u2022 Emphasise the value of developing good listening and attention skills!BREAK9.8.0 PHONOLOGICAL AWARENESS + SPEECH(ELB. 106, Slide 275)
