If your child is struggling with language in school, it is important that he or she receive help. Difficulty with language skills often translates into specific weaknesses that make learning to read a hard task. For children who struggle in these areas, our speech-language pathologist can help to foster success.

 Does your Pre-Schooler have trouble...

☼ listening or paying attention to speech

☼ understanding directions

☼ using words more often than gestures/sounds

☼ speaking clearly or understandably

☼ combining words into sentences

☼ using pretend play

☼ understanding concepts

☼ playing with other children

Children that struggle with language in pre-school may fall behind their peers in understanding concepts. These children may have difficulty making friends and understanding social interactions. It is important to receive help for your child,
as pre-schoolers with language problems are at risk for learning difficulties later on.

Speech/language therapy with our pre-schoolers is done within a context of literacy and learning basic concepts. As our younger clients progress into kindergarten, they are screened for possible reading problems.
