| Summary: | "The late eight, now in its second edition, is a popular resource for clinicians, students, and academics working with students whose speech contains errors affecting [th] (voiced theta), [th] (unvoiced theta), [s], [z], [l], Vocalic [r], [r], [sh], or [ts]. These nine sounds typically are the last acquired by English speaking children, and they are the sounds most likely to challenge school-aged students and non-native English speakers, both children and adults. This text fills the need for a resource that a student or clinician can turn to when treating a school-aged student or non-native English speaker who experiences difficulties with one or more late-acquired sound"-- Publisher's description. "For the second edition, a new chapter, written by Dr. Carlin Hageman, offers a motor learning perspective on assessing and treating the late eight. In addition, the companion DVD has been expanded to include 10 demonstration videos showing a motor learning perspective. Resources for each late-acquired sound include: Technical and non-technical definitions; Age of acquisition; Common errors; Key phonetic environments; Useful metaphors; Touch cues; Initial screening tests; Stimulability tests; Demonstrations of place, manner, and voicing; Phonetic placement and shaping techniques; Speech exercises, language awareness and speech activities; Lists of words divided by phonetic and word environments; Minimal pairs. A companion DVD contains reproducible 'cheat sheets,' exercises, and word lists for clinical use"--Back cover. |
