Little T's Journey
Requesting
Here is a progress video of one of our wonderful little one making amazing growth in his speech.
From having little words previously to now being able to address and request for various wants/needs (eg., for a toy, food, action, joint play, etc.). Can’t wait to see how much further you will go!
Speech Clarity
Little T was missing out on sounds in 'Zebra' where he would say 'Zue-ah' 🦓 We used a 'Speech Segmentation' tool which involves pointing to the dots whilst saying the words. The dot serves as a visual aid and helps him to see word segmentations (e.g., mon-key).
This awareness of word structure and sounds in words is especially helpful for children who change or miss out on sounds in their words (e.g., 'mon-e' or 'mon-). Now, he can articulate 'Zebra', various words, and simple sentences clearly and confidently! Stay tuned to watch more of Little T's progress! 🥳
Literacy
Emergent literacy skills such as sound awareness are the building blocks of learning to read and write. These development of literacy skills consequently also support our children's communication. Hence, one of our aims for Little T was to build upon his emergent literacy development 💬
We designed several resources to help Little T in his literacy journey. Watch Little T learn how to recognize his alphabet, identify letter sounds, blend letter sounds, and learn how to read in this video! 🗣📖
We are so proud of our little champ - keep reaching for the stars buddy 🥰⭐
