Speech Sounds Milestones for Boys and Girls By Age

Speech Sounds Milestones for Boys and Girls By Age

"Sharing resources is an empowering strategy for enhancing our capacity to serve."
- Marnee Brick, TinyEYE Co-Founder & President

 

What speech, or letter sounds should my child be able to make? To determine whether a child needs speech therapy, one of the assessments therapist make is a child's speech production at the word and sentence letter. The therapist then considers the types of errors the child makes, the frequency of letters and the child's age to help determine whether your child should be recommended for speech therapy.

Still Looking for a Fulfilling Online Therapy Career?

“There is no greater joy nor greater reward than to make a fundamental difference in someone's life.”

-Mary Rose McGeady 

The Average Person Spends 90,000 Hours at Work Over Their Lifetime

90,000 hours. That’s more than 10 full years. To put it into perspective, the average person spends around 38,000 hours over a lifetime caring for his or her children and only around 3,600 hours volunteering. All of these activities can be deeply rewarding, but we would be remiss to overlook the one that dominates such a large portion of our time, our career.

As a Speech-Language Pathologist or Occupational Therapist you are an active participant in a fulfilling and purposeful career field. You spend meaningful time helping people to communicate functionally and successfully in society, and that is no small feat. But do you actually feel the difference you’re making? Or do you instead find yourself stressed, overworked, and overtired? Do you wish you could spend less time driving, stuck in meetings, and reporting? Perhaps a career as an online SLP or online OT can help give you the balance you need.

Can a robot REALLY teach my students?

Posted by TinyEYE |

 

This is a picture we’ve held in our minds for over a decade. Some of us picture the classic TV show “The Jetsons” where Elroy’s class is taught by a robot. Others picture the scene from “The Matrix”, where upon downloading the information into his mind, Keanu Reeves announces “I know Kung Fu!” But aside from these futuristic examples, our real-life experience with robots has been limited to our household appliances and remote-control cars.

So, why can these robots teach our children where none could before? Simple. They aren’t just robots.

4 Common Misconceptions of Online Therapy: Busted

Posted by TinyEYE |

With the increased adoption of technology within schools across North America, it leaves one to wonder how this is impacting our youth. It seems that everywhere we turn there’s no getting away from there is a new technology. Like it or not, the future is here…along with the list of critics opposed to this shift. For those who have already opened their doors to online therapy (also known as telepractice), the ability to serve students with speech and occupational therapy disorders has shone through as paramount. It is our hope that the Speech-Language Pathology and Occupational Therapy community become educated on the vast benefits this new form of delivery provides through the use of traditional telepractice, as well as the next generation of telepractice in introducing robot doubles to the classroom.
